DO NOT PARK IN THE PAY AND DISPLAY CAR PARK

We have no authority over the pay and display car park. If you park there we have no way of cancelling the fine!

All clients must give their registration number into reception in order to receive free parking.

Q. CAN WE SMOKE/VAPE IN HINK

No. But the front door of Sort gets the afternoon sun and is a nice place to sit and have a smoke. There is no smoking or vaping allowed anywhere inside the facility.
