I'm scared about what will happen and what I should do?
Can anybody help me please? I have a disability and not much money.

Euro Car Parks and DCB Legal Discontinuance
My experience with Euro Car Parks goes back to February 2025. I made two visits a few days apart to the car park of a disused building, first to drop off a PC at a repair shop and a second to pick it up again.
