Parking at Royal Stoke for Cancer Patients

Since November 2013 there have been special concessions for patients having treatment at the Cancer Centre. It is possible to avoid parking charges by getting a pass. One pass is allowed per patient, and can be used by either the patient or regular carer / spouse / partner when parking at the Hospital.

The pass can be issued for a period of up to 3 months, covering full courses of chemo or radiotherapy or a stay as an in-patient. See the senior nurse when starting a course of treatment to get the form filled in, and a Pass Number.

The pass looks like this:

and must be displayed in the window of your car. Unfortunately it doesn’t make finding a space any easier!

Donation to Ward 111

Smiles all round as our Chairman, Fred Goodwin hands over a cheque for £500.00 to June Norcop at the Royal Stoke. June is a Specialist Head and Neck nurse looking after cancer patients. Sonja’s kind donation will benefit Head and Neck patients having treatment on the ENT Specialised Surgery Ward [ Ward 111 ] at the Royal Stoke. The cash will help purchase a new nebuliser machine. Details in our earlier post last October.
