breaking through careers
London
We feel as though there is a lot of pressure on young people to make the correct
career choices yet so many still do not have the tools or access to make
informed decisions. Lack of access to people from different professions means
that young people do not know what certain professionals do or what it takes to
get there, and a lack of confidence means that individuals do not put themselves
forward for roles that they are absolutely capable at achieving - with a little
hard work of course! Breaking Through Careers would like for people from all
backgrounds to have the opportunity to end up in a career that is truly right
for them. We will have succeeded if just a few more people from any and all
backgrounds: Discover and understand a profession that they either a) have not
had access to, b) have not taken the time to explore, or c) would otherwise not
have heard of because of their upbringing or environment. Know what is required
for them to enter that industry. See themselves in other people currently in
that profession, giving them the confidence they need to put themselves forward.
