BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS TO OPPORTUNITY IN EVERY CONSTITUENCY
The Breaking Down Barriers Commission is supporting Members of Parliament from across the political divide to show their support to break down barriers to opportunity in their constituency.
As part of the work, the Commission launched the Breaking Down Barriers Pledge - a simple set of commitments to doing all you can to break down the barriers to opportunity in your local community.
THE PLEDGE
1. Support my local schools, colleges and universities to deliver quality careers advice and mentoring to break down barriers to opportunity.
2. Work with local businesses and employers in my constituency to partner with schools, colleges and universities to deliver careers, advice, mentoring work experience and/or apprenticeship opportunities.
3. Provide young people from disadvantaged backrounds in my constituency with work experience or apprenticeship opportunities in my Constituency or Westminster office.
