Why this petition matters

Started by Gidon Goodman

I am a long term patient at the Sydney Children's Hospital, over my time at the hospital my family has spent thousands on parking at the rate of 28$ for 2 1/2 hours (less then the average treatment time). This parking rate appears to be unregulated and costs the most vulnerable in society thousands to receive healthcare that is supposedly "free". The money that is made for the most part goes straight to private companies so the money doesn't even help the hospital. In fact this is more expensive then Bondi Beach Parking, Domestic Airport parking, commercial parking and many valet services. Many families simply can not afford to be late for life saving treatment and can not find time to look for free parking in an extremely populated urban area situated right next to a university. Despite this parking fees have gone up over the last 5 years at a ridiculous rate which is forcing families to pay thousands and suffer the consequences. Please sign and share this petition to get hospital parking rates dramatically reduced, so families can once again go to hospital without worrying about the crippling price of parking.   For contact please email goodman.work@outlook.com
