Skittles
Letters brought people closer during ‘lockdown’ Gay pride.
Background
COVID-19 had cancelled Gay Pride celebrations. Skittles, who had given up their rainbow colours so Pride's rainbow could shine since 2017, wanted to ensure that no-one felt alone during Pride season, even if they weren’t physically together.
Solution
Skittles – working with Gay Times and Switchboard - helped people send "letters filled with Pride" to family and friends to let them know they were thinking of them during Pride.
To send a letter, people visited a website, created their note which was printed and posted free of charge.
