We welcome your views about our Local Offer. If you think information is missing or needs to be added or updated you can tell us at senteam@gateshead.gov.uk . We also want you to tell us if you couldn’t find a service you were looking for so we can either signpost you in the right direction or work towards filling that gap in provision.
If you are concerned about a child’s safety, you should immediately contact Gateshead Council on 0191 433 2410 (office hours) or 0191 477 0844 (out of hours).
