WHY WE SUPPORT THE LGBTQIA+ COMMUNITY

For decades, our LGBTQIA+ wearers have been lacing up their DM’s and taking to the streets. Marching in our boots. And shaping them into a symbol of rebellion. But despite everything they’ve achieved, the work is nowhere near done. LGBT homelessness is on the rise. Trans discrimination is rife around the world. In 2021, Pride remains as important as ever. So as we celebrate this year, we're going to help showcase why. Shine a light on the different ways people continue to celebrate Pride and draw strength from it. And help educate our community on issues facing our LGBTQIA+ wearers every day. As long as they need our support — until every single person feels respected, safe and seen — we'll keep shouting and marching with them. And continuing to support them in every way we can.

In the UK, we've donated £10,000 to akt 'the Albert Kennedy Trust' an LGBTQIA+ youth homelessness charity. akt provides housing support, mentoring and life skills training, and works to ensure that no young person has to choose between a safe home and being who they are. The work done by akt is more important than ever.
