About | Barrier Breakers Foundation

What we do

Barrier Breakers Foundation delivers innovative soft skills development programmes that empower individuals, particularly young people and those who are vulnerable or disadvantaged.

How we do it

We use our award-winning approach, BBM (Barrier Breakers Methodology for Soft Skills Development and Evaluation).

Why we do it

Soft skills are vital for employability and wellbeing, as well as for addressing significant social issues such as social mobility and youth crime. Although they’re needed more than ever, soft skills are not part of mainstream education and are in decline. We aim to close this ‘soft skills gap’.

Who we are

We’re a registered charity where everyone is committed to Barrier Breakers’ vision – that soft skills are universally recognised as an essential part of education and human development.
