Lobley Hill and Bensham
Activist Corrina Mulholland
I’m a Gateshead-based entrepreneur, qualified teacher, and community leader committed to helping local people build more secure, fulfilling lives.
I’ve spent most of my working life self-employed — starting and growing businesses — and I’m passionate about helping others do the same. Whether it’s supporting someone into work, building confidence, or helping launch a new idea, I believe everyone in Gateshead deserves the chance to succeed.
Through my work leading Gateshead Community Organisation, I support residents across our borough — helping people into employment, backing new community ventures, and championing inclusion, especially for those who often feel overlooked.
As a candidate for the Liberal Democrats, I’m focused on what matters locally: stronger community connections, better opportunities, and real support for people and families across Gateshead. Politics should work for you — and I’m here to make sure it does.

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!
