From the two public meetings at the Royal Hotel to the £40 million funding announcement for Scarborough's A&E ... here's everything that's happened in the last few months.

It was standing room only at the two public meetings at the Royal Hotel. There were rumours about the potential downgrade of Scarborough Hospital and trust representatives were left in no doubt as to how residents felt about it.

2. 'A&E and back up services are safe'
Following the two tumultuous meetings, Chief Executive Mike Proctor said the aim of the review had been 'misunderstood' and that the trust had no intention to downgrade the emergency department.

In November, Mr Proctor said Scarborough Hospital was among the list of 'unavoidably small hospitals', hospitals that serve remote areas of the country whose services need to be protected.
