I had an appointment at the ENT department at Crosshouse Hospital. I arrived and could not find a car parking space, so left my car in the Blue Badge area as I didn't want to miss the appointment I had been waiting for for 5 months.
As soon as I got into the reception I let the receptionist know that I had parked there and left my details. They informed me that I may get a fine.
Once my appointment had finished, I went back to my car and spoke to a member of staff nearby to explain the situation. They said that people can get a fine if they park in the Blue Badge space without displaying a badge. I explained that I have arthritis and struggle to walk far but this did not seem to make a difference.
No one seemed to offer me an alternative. I am concerned that if I cannot find a space at my next appointment, I will either have to face getting a fine or cancel my appointment.
