Warning of Hospital Car Park Closure

Posted by
Yeovil District Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
4am Friday 26th February - 6pm Sunday 28th February
4am Thursday 18th March -6pm Monday 22 March


Yeovil District Hospital is building a new unit to ensure the equipment we use in our
operating theatres continues to be sterilized to the highest standards.

Over the next few weeks the new building will be lifted on to the hospital roof by a large crane.  To enable this to happen we have no choice but to temporarily close off a significant area of our main car park.

We realise that this is going to be an inconvenience and we apologise. We are doing our very best to ensure that parking remains available in the lower half of the car park and in an adjoining staff car park at the far end of the hospital for inpatients, outpatients and  disabled visitors- this will be clearly signposted.  Car park attendants will be asking for proof of appointments and admissions before giving access to these parking areas to ensure they are reserved for those most in need.

We are asking visitors to please find alternative parking in any of the town centre car parks which are just a short walk from the hospital via the underpass.

Thank you for your co-operation it is much appreciated.

The Editors
A dad from Yetminister Nick MacBean hopes to turn tragedy into hope with a marathon bike ride in memory of his baby daughter who died of meningitis last year. Abbie and Isobel MacBean were born a month early and caught a life threatening infection.  Isobel had to be resuscitated after she stopped breathing but went on to beat the illness.  Tragically Abbie developed meningitis and died after a two year battle. Oliver the couple's six year old son suffers from a rare genetic condition.  Nick their dad wishes to raise £10,000 for the Children,s Hospice South West as a thank you to staff at its Bristol branch, Chartlon Farm who helped them so much during this time.
"We wouldn't have coped without the hospice, it wouold have been impossible.  it got us through some really tough times and we owe the staff so much.  It means a great deal to us to try and give something back."
Any monies raised will go to help towards a new hospice in Cornwall.
