Rainbow Laces
At Barclays, our commitment to the LGBT+ community transcends everything that we do. Championing equality, understanding, respect and inclusivity for the LGBT+ community is important to us. That’s why, as part of our Premier League and Barclays WSL partnerships – and as a member of Team Pride, we’re proud to support Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign. Soho FC is a club that exists to give members of the LGBT+ community and allies a safe place to play football. As recipients of the Barclays Community Football Fund, groups like this can access grants which help them to keep offering inclusive football. Watch these Soho FC members talk about why that’s so important.
We’re committed to creating real change and promoting equality for the LGBTQ+ community. And to do that, we need to make our voices heard and keep the conversation flowing. So this year we’re encouraging everyone to Lace Up and Speak Up.
Alongside the Premier League, Barclays WSL and Team Pride, we will encourage allyship in football and make a real difference to people’s lives.
Progress starts here. So let’s make change happen together. Lace up. Speak up.
