Are there any car parking facilities?
Education Centres 1 & 2 – Royal Preston Hospital
The Health Academy operates a 36 bay car park located outside Education Centre 1 and a short walk away from Education Centre 2.
Although operating ANPR like the rest of the Royal Preston Hospital site, this car park is managed directly by The Health Academy team on a bookings only basis.
Bookings must be made by 4pm on the previous day of your event and a concessionary charge of £3.50 is applied. To secure this concessionary rate, you must collect a voucher from Education Centre 1’s reception team and pay at the designated kiosk prior to leaving the car park.
Please email education.rph@lthtr.nhs.uk if you want to pre-book a parking space or discuss event parking whilst using the centre(s).
If you do not have a space on The Health Academy car park, you may still park on a designated visitor car park but normal pricing applies.
Education Centre 3 & LIFE Centre – Chorley & South Ribble Hospital
Unfortunately, we do not have a designated car park for events and conferencing at our Chorley site. However, visitors to our Centres may still park in a valid ‘Visitor’ space on the hospital site.
Please email education.cdh@lthtr.nhs.uk to discuss parking requirements if you are looking to host an event to explore further parking opportunities.
