Cancer patients may park at a concessionary rate but must register for this. Registration forms are available at Cancer Centre Reception and on the back of appointment letters.

On your first visit to Mount Vernon Cancer Centre, take your registration form to one of the following offices where you will be given a yellow Concessionary Parking Pass (valid for six months):

  • Facilities Office: 8.00am-4.00pm
  • Car Parking Office: 8.00am-1.00pm and 2.00pm-4.00pm
  • Post Room: 8.30am-12.00pm and 1.00pm-4.00pm

When you park, buy a Concession ticket for £1 at the Pay & Display machine and display this, together with your yellow pass, on your dashboard. Your yellow pass can be used in any car.

Parking for Blue Badge holders

Blue badge holders holders do not need to register or pay for parking. Please display your Blue Badge on your dashboard.

You may park in any parking bay in the public car parks. There are also some designated parking spaces for Blue Badge holders closer to some of the buildings.

Please note that parking is not permitted on the roads that run through the hospital, even with a Blue Badge.
