Living and Working in Yorkshire
Scarborough
The area of Scarborough includes some of the most exhilarating coastal and moor-land scenery in the country. The sea is never far away, with dramatic cliff top walks and beautiful beaches. The small market towns of Malton and Pickering, and historic, coastal towns and villages such as Whitby, Filey and Robin Hoods Bay are on the doorstep, as is the North Yorkshire Moors National Park with its picture book villages and valleys, and wild heather clad moor-land.
Scarborough General Hospital.
The catchment area of Scarborough Hospital extends from the Cleveland borders in the north to the south of Bridlington and includes the communities of Malton, Norton, Pickering and Kirkbymoorside. The resident population served by the Division of Medicine at Scarborough is approximately 220,000. This part of Great Britain is a popular holiday area and during peak periods the actual population served by the Hospital is much greater than this. Furthermore, some 21% of the district population is over the age of 65, compared to the national average of 15%.
