About Baroness Ruth Hunt

Youngest cross-bench peer in House of Lords, sitting since 2019
Former CEO of Stonewall, leading major LGBTQ+ campaigns
Speaker on change management, psychological safety, and the future of work
Ruth Hunt, Baroness Hunt of Bethnal Green, is a respected and influential communicator who, with charm and humour, helps audiences of all sizes and experiences understand how to build successful cultures and bring minority voices into the room.

With over 20 years of experience leading campaigns for LGBTQ+ communities, Ruth became the youngest cross-bench peer in the House of Lords in 2019. In addition to her Parliamentary work, Ruth and her partner Caroline Ellis are Directors of Deeds and Words, working with C-suite teams to understand how collective and inclusive leadership can drive organisational effectiveness.

Ruth is also well-known and regarded for her previous work as CEO and Director of Campaigns at Stonewall, Europe’s largest LGBTQ+ charity. While at Stonewall, Ruth led numerous landmark campaigns, including tackling homophobia in schools and developing the Rainbow Laces campaign in partnership with the Premier League.

Ruth has gone on to work with various organisations, helping them to develop inclusive cultures, foster psychological safety, bring together multi-generational workforces, and understand how to navigate the future of work. Ruth's experience working in the House of Lords and leading campaigns also makes her a valued speaker on the topics of public speaking and influencing others.

A Visiting Fellow at Jesus College, Cambridge, Oxford graduate, and former President of the Oxford University Students' Union, Ruth brings academic rigour to her work while remaining wholly accessible to audiences regardless of background and knowledge.
