Story

29th May - 5th June

We are turning five! Were so proud of what we've achieved over the past 5 years. We have supported over 1000 refugees in London to acquire the knowledge, confidence and experience they need to secure stable and fulfilling jobs, but there are so many more people who need our support.

Join us to celebrate our 5th birthday milestone and raise vital funds for Breaking Barriers during the Covid-19 pandemic by taking part in our 5k challenge. It doesnt matter how you complete your 5km. You could run, cycle, walk the dog, or swim. If youre feeling really adventurous you could hop, skip or jump, or even get the space hopper out! If physical challenges arent your thing why not bake us 5 cupcakes, or get in touch with five of your family and friends to tackle the lockdown isolation you can get as creative as you like, as long as you work 5 in there somehow.

Choose your 5k, share your #BB5 and make a birthday donation - with a 5 in it of course!

We also want to see all your fabulous activities so be sure to share your photos and videos online with the #BB5 hashtag. If youre doing a physical challenge wed love to see some birthday-themed GPS art as well!
