Business representatives invited to tour new Scarborough Hospital expansion site

Jo Thompson, leader of the Scarborough Business Ambassadors, said people will be amazed at the scale of the project and the rate at which it is progressing.

"I hope the business community will join us at our new Business Breakfast Club which is working alongside the York and Scarborough Hospitals Charity to host a special meeting, including a tour of the new-look hospital as it is being built.

"I do hope people will be able to attend ... let's show the health service and all its employees how much we value them and how we can support them."

The event takes place on Thursday January 26, at the Postgraduate Centre at Scarborough Hospital, from 8am to 9.30am, followed by the tour.

Proceeds will go to the Urgent and Emergency Care Appeal at Scarborough Hospital, which is set up to raise money for the improved patient experience at the new hospital including family rooms, relaxation spaces and more.

Mrs Thompson said: "At our last meeting, SBA director Su Richings introduced the appeal to raise £400,000 for projects to make a stay in hospital a more pleasant experience.

"In support of the appeal, we agreed that a business club would be created."
