Consultation has concluded

Project Update

Thank you to everyone who took part in our consultation into the future of Hartlepool's parks. We had nearly 500 responses to the survey, along with some great ideas on our ideas board!

Place-based management plans have been developed for each park, which will help us to take a more proactive approach to review the strengths and challenges associated with each site.

The plans were reported to Adult Service Committee on 25th January this year, the report can be seen online on the following link:

https://www.hartlepool.gov.uk/meetings/meeting/4521/adult_and_community_based_services_committee(External link)

It is the top one of the four downloads on the page. The report itself starts on page 18 of the PDF, and includes a report on the outcome of the consultation (page 22 of the document).

The documents will now be used to guide officers work in maintaining and enhancing these four parks.




A series of management plans are being developed for four of Hartlepool's parks and open spaces - Burn Valley Gardens, Rossmere Park, Seaton Park and Ward Jackson Park. The purpose of these plans is to demonstrate the visions and priorities for the parks and open spaces. It is important that the information in the plans reflects the views of Hartlepool residents and park visitors. This will help us to continue providing a service that meets the needs of the community. For that reason, we want to hear your thoughts on these four parks, how often you visit, what you like and dislike about them, and what you believe should be our priorities for the future of the parks.


How to get involved:

  • Fill out the Hartlepool's Parks Survey below to share your views and comment on the plans.
  • Use the Ideas Board below to let us know what you'd like to see in the parks.
  • Ask us a question using the Question & Answer feature below.


The consultation will be open until Sunday 24th September. If you have any further questions or comments to share, please get in touch with us via parksandcountryside@hartlepool.gov.uk.
