Parking

Patient/visitor car parks are open and normal charges apply, but space is limited and there is no on-street parking nearby. If you need to wait in your car for a period of time, please make sure you have water to drink, especially in hot weather.

There are patient and visitor car parks at the Churchill Hospital, including directly outside the Oxford Cancer Centre (Car Parks 1 and 2). All patient and visitor car parks are numbered, but staff car parks are prefixed with a letter.

Please note: some car parks are 'Pay and Display' whilst others are 'Pay on Foot'.

'Pay on Foot'. This means you take a ticket at the barrier on entry and pay when you are ready to leave, validating your ticket at one of the pay stations, which will then allow you to exit.

The first 30 minutes are free in Pay on Foot car parks; this is to enable visitors plenty of time to find a space, or wait for one to become free in busy times.

'Pay and Display'. Car Park 4 still operates this system, where visitors need to purchase a ticket from one of the machines in the vicinity and display it clearly in the vehicle.

Under certain circumstances, patients or visitors may be entitled to discounted or free parking.

Parking charges

Time	Charge
Up to 30 minutes	Free (if vehicle exits within this period)
30 minutes to 1 hour	£1.40
1 - 2 hours	£2.80
2 - 3 hours	£4.20
3 - 4 hours	£5.60
Over 4 hours	£7.00
8.00pm - 8.00am	Free
Lost ticket charge	£7.00

Parking is free overnight if you arrive after 8.00pm and leave before 8.00am.

Unfortunately we are unable to accept cards in our payment machines.

Disabled parking

There is disabled parking outside the main car parks on all sites so there is no need to go into a barriered area.

Blue Badge holders must observe the code of the Blue Badge Scheme. The Churchill Hospital is a private site and therefore Trust parking restrictions apply to all drivers.

There is a £25 penalty for inappropriate parking in disabled spaces (£50 if not paid within 14 days).
