Hector Bellerin and Gay Gooners chat Rainbow Laces

To mark our support for Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign over the next two weeks, Hector Bellerin made a call to the Gay Gooners – the UK’s first and world’s largest LGBT+ football fan group to understand more about the significance of the campaign and learn more about the personal experiences of our diverse fan base.

We will show our support for the campaign around our Premier League matches against Tottenham Hotspur and Burnley and our Women's Super League fixture against Birmingham City as part of our ongoing commitment to equality and diversity.

All three fixtures will feature rainbow captain’s armbands, ball plinths and boards displaying the iconic branding to remind supporters of the ongoing work that goes on across football and other sports to support and celebrate our LGBT+ communities.
