YourParkingSpace champions free parking for NHS workers

Coronavirus: Parking marketplace launches national campaign

YourParkingSpace, an on-demand parking platform, has launched a campaign to provide NHS workers with free parking across the UK.

When registering on YourParkingSpace, NHS workers will be provided with a unique code enabling them to use their NHS credentials to reserve spaces in car parks throughout the country.

There are over 940 car parks available to book free of charge, comprised of shopping centres, hotels and supermarkets, with many located near health facilities.
These include car parks such as Holiday Inn Express Leeds City Centre, which is located near Leeds General Infirmary, and the Holiday Inn Express Derby near the London Road Community Hospital.

YourParkingSpace is in ongoing discussions with its network of space owners and said it will continue to update its website and Twitter page with additional places to park. It intends to extend the scheme to other key services workers over the coming weeks.

Harrison Woods, chief executive officer of YourParkingSpace said: “In these unprecedented times, it’s important that we do what we can to help. With reduced public transport in many places and increased movement of health workers, we’re pleased to be working alongside supermarkets, shopping centres and hotels to assist key workers in this small way. We plan to add new spaces to the platform every day, hopefully it’s something that helps to make things easier for NHS staff and other key services workers.”
