Blue Badge bays
24 marked bays
Blue Badge bays at main entrance and near A&E. Free for badge holders but you must display the badge clearly — ANPR will fine you otherwise.
Drop-off
20-minute free drop-off loop at the main entrance (Oxford Road). Ward visitors should use the main car park, not the loop.
NHS staff parking
NHS staff need a Trust permit (apply via MFT staff parking office, 6-12 month waiting list). Without a permit, staff pay public tariffs. Agency and locum staff: speak to your ward manager — short-term codes are sometimes available for on-call shifts.
If you get a fine
PCN issued by ParkingEye on behalf of MFT. Appeal first via parkingeye.co.uk within 28 days; if rejected, escalate to POPLA (free, independent). Trust patient services can support appeals for patients in distress.
