Rainbow Laces has always campaigned to make sport everyone’s game.
They’ve focused on inspiring, educating and encouraging allyship to support LGBT inclusion in sport.
The events of 2020 have highlighted long-standing inequalities across society. We’ve seen the disproportionate impacts of the pandemic on marginalised groups and the results of structural racism throughout society, including in LGBT communities and across sport.
The events of this year have also shown us how much community and allyship matter. We’ve seen the role that sport and fitness play in bringing us together, and so many LGBT people and allies have been doing amazing work to make sport everyone’s game.
To show our support again this year, we will proudly wear the rainbow armband during our game with Hibernian on 5 December 2020.
