Lincolnshire hospital trust set to earn nearly £1 million more in 2024 from increased car parking charges

The United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust is expecting to see a significant rise in revenue from car parking charges, forecasting an additional £1 million in the coming financial year. This expectation is the result of an increase in car park fees across all its hospital locations, including those in Lincoln, Boston, and Grantham. The trust has conveyed that the surplus revenue will be utilised to support essential services and enhance facilities for patients and visitors. This decision has instigated debates among the local population concerning its impact on hospital staff and visitors, who might have to bear additional costs when visiting the hospital for appointments or work.
