Stella Winifred Newsome (28 July 1889 – 11 November 1969) was a British teacher and militant suffragette who was active in the Women's Freedom League.
She wrote the WFL's history and she was the de facto archivist of the Suffragette Fellowship which was an organisation of those who had been involved in the 1905 to 1914 militant campaign for women to have the vote in Britain.
Margaret West was the WSPU organiser it Leicester and Newsome would carry out vandalism of golf courses and letter boxes to gain attention for the suffragette's cause.
She was involved in giving talks to groups prior to the protest by the National Federation of Women Teachers in November 1920.
