Hospital car parks make millions

Campaigners say the money made by NHS trusts from car parking charges is shameful as some trusts' income tops £2m a year.

According to the list released by the Estates Return Information Collection, 30 trusts are making more than £1m each from their car parks.

But the top earners were Southampton University Hospitals at £2.41m and Cambridge University Hospitals, £2.26m.

Overall, the NHS took £95m in charges but 74 trusts did not supply figures.

WHAT A SCANDAL, ESPECIALLY - ADDENBROOKE'S..............SHAME ON YOU
