of parking appeals against Hammersmith & Fulham are won
Independent adjudicators decided 303 appeals in 2024-25 and allowed 132 of them. That is 5.8 points below the London average of 49.4%.
97 of those 132 wins were uncontested. In 73.5% of the appeals Hammersmith & Fulham lost, it put up no defence at the tribunal at all — noticeably more often than the 58.5% London average. Those tickets were not marginal decisions. The authority had already given up on them, and the appeal was the only thing that stood between the driver and a cancelled charge.
What this does and does not tell you
These are appeals that went all the way to an independent adjudicator against Hammersmith & Fulham, which is the final stage.

So the real chance of getting a ticket cancelled somewhere in the process is higher than 43.6%, not lower. Among the 33 London authorities with enough appeals to compare, Hammersmith & Fulham ranks 22th for how often drivers win.
