Car parking is limited in and around the hospital. There are limited spaces in our underground car park with some reserved for blue badge holders. There is also the Q-PARK opposite and some on-road parking.
We do appreciate that parking can be costly so if you are finding this difficult, please speak to the nurse in charge or contact PALS to see if there is anything we can do to help.
We believe it is important to inform you that any profits generated from car parking charges are reinvested into frontline care to support the children and families we are proud to have in our care.
The main entrance turning circle is for drop off and pick up only for all vehicles with a maximum 10 minute time frame. The drop off and pick up point is monitored by automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) and a Parking Charge Notice of £100 will be issued if the 10 minute time window is breached.
There are a limited number of spaces on Western Bank for families to park for free when attending the Emergency Department only. You must collect a permit from the Emergency Department reception to display in your car window while parked here.
The space in front of the Emergency Department is for ambulance/police/fire vehicles only – any other vehicles including taxis and private vehicles are not be allowed. Any vehicle in this area will be subject to a Parking Charge Notice of £100 being issued by the ANPR system.

A fully chargeable pay and display underground car park with 26 spaces is available on Clarkson Street for patients and their parents / guardians / carers only. There is a ticket machine facility, a pay by phone option (via avalonpay.net/1222) and an automatic number plate recognition system. Vehicle owners have until midnight on the day of parking to purchase a ticket covering their stay.
There are spaces to park your bike if you wish to cycle to our sites. We ask that visitors bring their own bike lock to secure their bikes.
Please use the provided storage racks and do not lock bikes to railings as this often obstructs walkways and fire exits.
Concessions are available in certain circumstances via the Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS).
Blue badge holders benefit from free parking, and should inform a Car Parking Attendant upon arrival. A valid blue badge must be displayed when parking.
If an attendant is not available, holders should call 0114 271 7352 (weekdays 8am to 4pm) or 0114 271 7000 (weekends, public holidays 4pm to 8am).
