Dear Essex County Council,
I would ask that the penalty charge be cancelled for the following reasons. On the day in question I was taking my six year old daughter to Broomfield Hospital for an appointment in the audiology department. When [name redacted] was three years old, a nursery teacher first raised concerns around her hearing, this was just before we had covid. Following the pandemic we managed to get her into the system and what followed was a large number of hospital visits for extensive tests and checks, including blood tests. [name redacted] was found to have moderate hearing loss in the hearing of high frequency sounds. There was also concern that further loss may occur, and she is subject to ongoing monitoring.
On the day of the alleged contravention we had been asked to come into the hospital for an appointment with some specialists, to discuss next steps and what options might be available to identify the cause of the loss of hearing.
Being a law abiding citizen I decided to park a few streets away instead of clogging up the overflowing hospital car park.
As I am sure you will appreciate [name redacted]'s medical condition has taken a toll on us as a family. The restriction is only in force for one hour a day so I take it the policy objective is to stop commuters from parking all day, we are not commuters and we were only parked for a short time during this medical appointment. I attach the medical records confirming [name redacted]'s history as well as her appointment letter for 6 June 2024; I trust that in light of this mitigation and owing to the trivial nature of the infraction, you will agree to waive the penalty on this occasion.
Yours faithfully,
Attach both the letter from June 2024, and all the other correspondence from 2023 that you sent me.
