We are pleased to announce that for the fourth year running, we will be partnering up with akt, a charity supporting LGBTQ+ youth facing homelessness struggles, for the entirety of June to celebrate Pride Month! 25% of net sales from our Rainbow Edit in June will be donated.
akt, or the Albert Kennedy Trust, is a charity that works to support young LGBTQ+ people who have been made homeless into safe homes and employment, whilst celebrating their identities in a welcoming environment. Did you know that a shocking 1 in 4 LGBTQ+ identifying young person faces violence and abuse at home, and around 77% of young people that akt supports are facing homelessness as a result of coming out? Due to this, 24% of young, homeless people identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, leading to further unnecessary discrimination and violence. akt work nationally to ensure that these numbers don’t rise, and young people have a safe place to turn to; these are values that are close to our hearts here at Estella Bartlett.
Our Rainbow Edit is designed to show solidarity with all our own LGBTQ+ staff and community members further afield experiencing injustice. Whether you are looking to give a gift to show unity with the community or jazz up your own Pride looks, the Rainbow Edit is sure to have the perfect option for you!
The 27-piece collection (up from 22 last year) has extended into men’s jewellery for full inclusivity since 2024, with some fresh new-in designs such as the Men’s Pearl and Mixed Gemstone Necklace and Bracelet. We have added a few new women's best sellers to the range as well, including the Wellness Mixed Gemstone Amelia Bracelet and Necklace. You can also shop our signature Rainbow Edit pieces: CZ Pendant Beaded Necklace, Chubby Rainbow Celestial Hoops and Beaded Rainbow Sun Charm Louise Bracelet.
We thank you for showing your continued support for such an important cause!
