Staff 'looking for new jobs' after parking row at Merseyside hospital

Staff at a Merseyside hospital are allegedly "looking for new jobs" after being "banned" from parking on the hospital car park.

Arrowe Park Hospital, in Birkenhead, has allowed staff to park onsite free of charge since the start of the pandemic in 2020. However, staff claim the return of visitors has seen new parking restrictions brought in due to a "lack of space".

The hospital have refuted the claims that most staff members are being prevented from parking, but said enabling works have made some spaces "temporarily unavailable". One staff member, who wishes to remain anonymous, said people can apply for fobs that will allow them to park at the hospital for £10 a month however these are only available to staff who meet a "very strict criteria".
