We delved into the Hartlepool Mail archives to find these scenes which show everything from sponsored dancing to a band night held for a worthy cause.
We were inspired by this week’s story of the Triple R challenge.
It’s a fantastic effort from a town known for its support for worthy causes over the years.
So why not see if you can spot one that you remember from our Hartlepool Mail retro collection?
