Rainbow Shoelace Project

Rainbow Shoelace Project is the brainchild of 12-year-old Abbie Kelly in Broken Hill. This is a self funded project, creating packs of rainbow coloured beads to go on shoelaces, which are given out for free to show support to the LGBTIQ+ community. Abbie was awarded a Small Grant to continue her work on this project.
