Improve Parking & Access at the JR and Churchill Hospitals

Martin Bowsher

We have to use the Churchill from time to time, nobody wants to but alas it’s necessary. The visit would be so much more less stressful if we were able to park more easily.

Susan Collett

Theres just not enough spaces and driving around looking for one in the car park and not getting one still issues you with a charge

PAMELA MASON

As a previous cancer patient I needed to be able to travel to the hospital at specific times for treatment and public transport was a nightmare when feeling extremely unwell and trying to avoid other people’s germs while being immunocompromised

Jackie de Klerk

It's so frustrating trying to park

Patricia Willing

I have regular appointments at the Churchill for cancer treatment. The constant battle to find a parking spot is stressful. I usually leave an hour extra to find one. I am 85 and find public transport difficult

Shami Scholes

I'm a regular visitor to the Churchill hospital and the stress of finding a parking space and a nearby machine at which to pay only make an already stressful appointment worse.

Sarah Benson

Visiting a hospital is stressful. Make parking easier please to minimise this

Moira Mellowship

Of course it is important the hospitals serve rural communities and there is little or NO public transport in the villages.

Paul Hodson

Last time I went to JR Hospital it took 2 hours to get a parking space

Jackie ingram

I don't have a car but some people really do need to be able to park on site and staff working late shifts need to be considered too

Maggie Findlay

Sick people can’t always use a bus.

Fiona Elbourn

Having to allow at least an hour to find parking and at times still not finding any, esp when you have an ill relative or an appt adds additional stress. And being charged for going round and round the carpark trying to find a space is morally wrong.

Cherielynn Gregory

Because we use the Churchill and JR regularly and it adds extra stress knowing you have to fight for spaces

Zena Hurn

The stress it causes to park for an appointment

Anna Liuzzi

I'm pregnant and every appointment I attended at the JR parking has been the worse part!

Mary Russell

My husband was a patient at the Churchill before he died and my mum (98) has been a patient at the JR a couple of times recently. Lack of parking spaces has meant using buses for visiting for me and taxis for pick-ups. Visiting by other relatives almost impossible. All these scenarios are very frustrating and upsetting when you have very ill loved-ones in hospital.

annette dunnill

It took me 40 minutes to find a parking space and I never made in time to say goodbye to a dear relative m!

Carole Townsend

Because sometimes you can spend so long trying to find a space you are in danger of missing your appointment.

Denise East

People go to a hospital because of illness and necessity. They don't go there for entertainment. Adequate parking should be available.

Rob Jones

It’s vital that we are able to get to and from these hospitals and be able to park within a short timeframe not always have to wait for public transport
