Leaking valve?

I haven't ridden my bike for a year, I've come back to it and I can't inflate one of the tyres, it seems to be leaking air at the base of the valve. I suspect just squirting superglue all the way around it is a bad idea?!!

I've never taken a tyre off before - is the valve attached to the inner tube and if I buy a replacement inner tube will it come with a valve? If not, I suspect the problem is where the valve joins the inner tube but can't seem to find a puncture repair guide on this area - can anyone offer one?

Thanks, and apologies if this seems like a standard query, honestly I have tried searching!
