You normally only see rainbows when you are looking up - well - not anymore. Welcome to the Rainbow Shoelace Project.
About us
The Rainbow Shoelace Project is the brainchild of (at the time) 12-year-old Abbie Jane from a remote outback town in NSW. The aim of the project is to show support to the LGBTIQ+ community by wearing Pride coloured beads on your shoelaces. Abbie is encouraging members of the LGBTQI+ community and their allies to join this project by wearing the beads, and in doing so, have a positive impact on the mental health of the LGBTIQ+ community.
