Rainbow Laces Campaign
We are proud to join the other 91 League Clubs in supporting Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign. The joint initiative by the EFL, Premier League, PGMOL, and The FA will show football standing together in support of LGBT inclusivity.
Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign aims to make sport everyone’s game with national teams, leading clubs, professional players, fans and grassroots players from across football showing their support for LGBT people in sport.
