Taking pride in Haringey this LGBT History Month

February is LGBT history month, and this year Haringey Council will be marking it by catching up with some of those making a difference in the borough.

From charity work to school achievements and even a Mustang being transformed into a unicorn, there will a range of LGBT+ stories from Haringey.

The borough has the eighth highest LGBT+ community in London and has a proud LGBT+ rights history, including community marches in the 80s in support of the gay community, and work from local politicians to campaign for LGBT equality, including the successful scrapping of Section 28 (which banned councils from promoting homosexuality) and support for gay marriage.
