Elly Barnes is a music teacher and diversity officer at Stoke Newington School.
Elly has co-ordinated LGBT History Month celebrations at Stoke Newington school since 2005. The project has grown from an introductory assembly and a year 7 LGBT music lesson into a whole school initiative through the entire curriculum. Stoke Newington School hosts the Hackney borough LGBT celebrations each February, encouraging and inviting all Hackney schools and organisations to take part.
In 2011 she was voted Number 1 in the Independent on Sunday's Pink List for her work on LGBT equality.
