Public Health is about helping people stay healthy and protecting them from threats to their health. At Hartlepool Borough Council, our Public Health team works to improve wellbeing and reduce health inequalities across the town.
Key areas of focus include:
- Public health intelligence: surveillance, monitoring and assessment
- Academic public health: promoting evidence, knowledge and research
- Workforce development: supporting the growth of public health professionals
We commission, implement and monitor public health programmes and interventions that make a real difference in the community.
