Hartlepool Pride in Place Programme - Innovation Days
Pride in Place is a 10-year programme focused on making real, positive changes within neighbourhoods across Hartlepool. The programme is built around three clear, strategic objectives:
- Building Thriving Places
- Strengthening Communities
- Empowering People
The programme is governed by the Hartlepool Board - an independent partnership of community representatives, businesses and strategic partners - and gives local communities the power to invest £20m over the next 10 years within Hartlepool.

We are now entering a crucial phase and will be hosting a series of thematic Action and Innovation Days in March 2026. Each session is structured to take you on a journey - from understanding local context and community priorities, to generating ideas and projects, to starting the development of the most promising proposals. The attached infographic provides key information about these events.
