Email: hello@gatesheadlibdems.org.uk
Shakuntala Beadle is a child psychotherapeutic counsellor who works with children and young people across Tyneside. She says: ‘Children’s mental health is my passion and if I am elected I would work to encourage Gateshead schools to employ mental health professionals. This was in both the Labour and Liberal Democrat’s general election manifestos but the Government have not yet provided the necessary funding. I would also push the Council to train everyone who works in schools about children’s mental health.

It shouldn't be like this! Croft Estate
Too many properties on the Croft Estate are boarded up. Residents suffer from graffiti. Homes are left empty for too long at a time of a housing shortage. Fire damaged properties stand dangerously. It shouldn’t be like this!
