The Big Conversation: What it's all about?
A major public consultation and engagement exercise has been launched by Hartlepool Borough Council.
The Big Conversation – Your Say, Our Future is running for 10 weeks until the end of January 2024. We want to hear from residents and partners from the public, private and voluntary and community sectors to find out how they feel about Hartlepool. We also want to hear your thoughts and ideas about the type of place you want Hartlepool to be in the future.
What we hear through the Big Conversation will help inform the development of a new Council Plan which will set out the Council’s priorities for the next 5 years.
