The Joy of Collaboration: Breaking Barriers
We're delighted to share the below interview from Breaking Barriers and our Proactive Programmes Manager, Nelly Koko-Konan. In the full interview (worth a watch at only five minutes!), Nelly discusses how the values of the two organisations align, what meaningful employment means to her, and the value of lived experience in the charity sector.
We're delighted at the collaboration we've achieved with Breaking Barriers and our other partners.
Breaking Barriers said, ‘Since 2021, The Foundation hasplayed an important role in our growth and impact for refugees seekingmeaningful employment. Last year, we received funding via The Clothworkers’ Foundation flagship Economic Equity Programme. This fund is designed fororganisations that are addressing inequalities on an individual, community or systemic level.’
