Louise Elliott (born 1969, Ashington) is a Welsh broadcaster and journalist.
Born in Ashington, Northumberland, her father Dave Elliott was a professional football player at Sunderland and Newcastle United. At the age of five, her family moved to Wales - she was brought up at Llandegfan near Menai Bridge on Anglesey.
After competing her A Levels, Elliott joined the North Wales Chronicle in Bangor as a trainee reporter. She then worked on local newspapers in Colwyn Bay and Rhyl, before moving to the Wrexham Evening Leader, where she covered the Hillsborough disaster. Four years later, she became education correspondent for the Preston-based Lancashire Evening Post.
After a year, Elliott joined the Daily Post, where, for reports including one from Bosnia with the Red Cross on the Mostar massacre, she twice won the regional Young Journalist of the Year award. She then became news editor of three editions of the Daily Post, becoming at the age of 26, one of the youngest news editors in regional newspapers.
