When relating it directly to the hospital estate, vast areas of valuable space are taken up by ground-level car parking that hasn’t been optimised efficiently, resulting in a loss of space that could support clinical expansion.
With capital budgets tightening and the demand for services increasing, NHS Trusts need to urgently think about how the space on their estate is best utilised.
At ModuleCo Healthcare, we’re helping NHS Trusts think differently about car parking. Our modular car parking solution enables estates teams to quickly expand their space with minimal disruption, while also providing the opportunity to generate significant additional income.
To support this change in thinking, we have developed a new income generator calculator that demonstrates the potential revenue generation for NHS Trusts from the very beginning.
Reclaim your estate
Space is one of a hospital's most precious resources, and in many cases, there isn’t much available. There is, however, underutilised space in the form of surface-level car parks. Although necessary for patient and staff access, these large areas take up significant estate that could be better used to support clinical expansion, which is urgently needed to help improve staff and patient wellbeing.
Our modular car parks are designed with efficiency in mind from both a space and operational perspective, which allows the ability to:
- Consolidate multiple surface car parks into one multi-storey solution
- Unlock land for clinical developments or green spaces
- Improve traffic flow and reduce congestion on-site
- Provide reliable staff access
This approach enables NHS Trusts to make smarter use of their estate and prioritise space for care delivery.
Parking that pays you back
NHS budgets are extremely tight, with Trusts often being asked to do more with less. Which is why offering an infrastructure project that cannot just absorb costs but generate a financial return would be an extremely attractive prospect to a lot of Trusts.
Whilst parking is often viewed as an afterthought, it can offer a reliable form of income, delivering a tangible financial value back to the Trust, giving improved financial flexibility at a time when it’s needed most.
To help Trusts explore this opportunity, we have developed an income generator calculator which can offer a quick estimation of:
- Additional income over 15 years
- A starting point for discussions around funding options
- How income per space per day and space count affect returns
See what your car park could return in seconds
We’ve developed a free, easy-to-use Income Generator Calculator to help NHS Trusts estimate the long-term value of smarter parking.
By entering just a few simple inputs, the number of spaces and income per space per day, you’ll receive an instant estimation of potential returns over 15 years.

It’s a powerful first step in exploring how your estate could generate income, free up clinical space, and support financial resilience, all with minimal disruption.
Built for NHS priorities with the future in mind
Our modular car parks are built to ease parking pressures whilst supporting wider NHS strategies, from achieving Net Zero, relieving operational bottlenecks and easing long-term budget constraints.
Manufactured off-site and delivered with minimal disruption, our car parks are tailored to suit your site, available footprint, and required capacity.
This allows the facility to be installed and operational rapidly. This speed of delivery allows Trusts to expand parking capacity without interrupting clinical services or tying up valuable estate land.
When it comes to sustainability, our car parks help Trusts move meaningfully toward Net Zero targets. Key features include:
- Solar canopies to generate on-site renewable energy
