Candidate Mothin Ali

Gipton and Harehills Ward

About Mothin

Mothin is one of our most active candidates in the Gipton & Harehills ward in East Leeds.

Aside from campaigning on local issues he’s a local accountant by profession and a qualified mufti.

He has lived in Gipton and Harehills for more than 20 years and in that time, he’s always been involved in community work whether that’s volunteering at the mosque teaching children Arabic to campaigning for against granting more licences to sell alcohol or campaigning against drug dealers exploiting the young.

He’s particularly passionate about tackling antisocial behaviour and general community wellbeing.

He’s said “..having lived in an overcrowded back-to-back I have experience of how poor quality housing can affect the lives of ordinary people”. He knows what it’s like being on the margins. Mothin also founded the anti-racism organisation called Dig It Out which focuses on equality within horticulture.

You can find his work by checking out ‘My Family Garden’.
