Health & Wellbeing

Our Health and Wellbeing Work-Stream is being developed through the Hartlepool Health & Wellbeing Alliance.

A dynamic and vibrant cross sector group working at a practical, operational and strategic level to address important issues for the people who live and work in Hartlepool

It has acted collaboratively to secure funds for specific projects as well as created a collaborative space capable of considering the future and dealing with the present

The group created an emergency response to suicides in the town which included the wide spread distribution of information cards across the town highlighting a whole range of support available across the area, creating extra one to one support for those impacted by suicide, training and resources around “Safety Planning” and the creation of a “Check In” framework across the town enabling organisations to act as an shared support point offering help and assistance to people no matter what their need or issue is. In this way we are all working together to highlight and extend access to support for those most in need. 

This work will soon be enhanced and extended and the Alliance is looking further into the future, looking to ensure the town is able to offer care and assistance while also recognising its skills, assets and resources to be able to help itself.

Please get in touch with us if you would like to support or get involved in any of this work. We are particularly keen to see those individuals who have lived through the challenges of problems with their health and wellbeing to get involved and help design and deliver the best solutions for us all.
