Hospitals earn £100m from car park fees
Extract from the Telegraph:
"Hospitals were accused of "fleecing" patients and their families after it was disclosed they made more than £100 million from car parking charges last year.
The figures, obtained through a Freedom of Information request, show hospitals across England and Wales earned £102.3 million last year, up from £97.2 million in 2006. Patients' groups said the parking charges, which can involve visitors paying more than £4 an hour, were a "scandal"."
