The Great Big Green Week
Saturday 24th September 2022 | 11am - 3pm | POSTPONED
We would love for the town to join us in celebrating The Great Big Green Week 2022. In partnership with Middleton Grange Shopping Centre, we’ll be hosting a Green Hartlepool event to mark the occasion.
If you are in anyway involved in making Hartlepool a more environmentally friendly town, then we would love you to showcase at the event. We are welcoming businesses, groups and individuals to get involved. Contact us below for enquires and more information.
We will welcome the general public to enjoy the showcase starting at 11am on Saturday 24th September!
We believe that there is an enormous amount of work and passion in Hartlepool for the climate action, waste reduction and sustainability agendas. We have many individuals, groups and businesses focused on this.
In 2021 Julie Harrison became a Love Hartlepool Leader, joining us and being determined to put Hartlepool on the map as a beacon for this agenda, demonstrating just how much one town can do. As such our Green Heart of Hartlepool work programme was born. Julie is a longstanding climate activist, an entrepreneur, business owner and STEM educator. She is leading our work in this area and in November of 2021 the LH Leaders Group agreed the ‘Green Heart’ as one of four priority areas for the coming year.
Our overarching aspirations for this work across the town and wider borough are:
- To build a local campaign to bring together all the excellent work which is ongoing around the climate action, waste and sustainability across the town and wider borough.
- To demonstrate the additional impact individuals, groups and businesses can have by cross town collaboration and working together where it is appropriate.
- To support the mapping of all current groups, work and businesses across the town so it can be showcased and amplified
