Stonewall’s annual equality dinner, which took place at the Hilton on Park Lane, raised £470,000 for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Equality last week.

The event took place at the Hilton on Park Lane and was supported by Aviva, with a champagne reception supported by E.ON.

Speakers on the night included Stonewall CEO Ruth Hunt; Vicar of Finedon, broadcaster and writer Reverend Richard Coles; and award-winning writer, actor and director Stella Duffy. All emphasised in their speeches that while there are certainly legislative achievements to celebrate, there is still a lot to do to achieve social equality for LGBT people.
