United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust Expects Significant Boost in Car Park Revenue

United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust is predicted to experience an almost £1m surge in revenue from car parking fees as a result of recent price increases. The new charges have been introduced across numerous locations, including Pilgrim Hospital in Boston, as well as sites in Lincoln and Grantham. Information obtained through a Freedom of Information request indicates that the trust is expected to amass over £2m in revenue from car parking during the 2025/26 financial year. This represents a significant 78% increase compared to the previous year. The trust has claimed that this increase in charges will facilitate the enhancement of parking facilities at all its hospital locations.
