The Staincliffe
We're restoring a historic Hartlepool landmark to become the foundation's new home: a dedicated training and community hub.
A new home for the foundation
We purchased the Staincliffe building to renovate as a training and administration centre for the charity, and as a facility for the local community and its sporting clubs.
We know the building carries a historic legacy and fond memories for many people in the town. It had been left in a state of disrepair, with significant damage both internally and externally, so the last twelve months have been spent making the building safe and secure and carrying out essential repairs.
Every repair brings us closer to what matters: a permanent base where young people can train, learn, and belong.
