Comments from Breaking Boundaries’ participants
“I never thought people were really interested in my culture, culture is just like shopping in the UK but young people have taught me that we can have different ideas and values and these are worth debating.”
Amina Bizmana, Breaking Boundaries volunteer

“I now realise you have to know a lot to teach and work with young people. It’s not just about style, turning an idea into an activity is really hard but really satisfying.” Helen Sewell, Breaking Boundaries volunteer

“I have learnt a lot. I realised that there is only one race in this world, the Human Race! I think the whole programme has made me a wiser person and I think it is important the human beings should be judged on what we have in common rather that our differences!” John Roan student

“Breaking Boundaries is a fantastic project – the best thing yet. We have been learning about multiculturalism and global equality.” Langdon student

“Breaking Boundaries got me doing all sorts of stuff I would never have done before. First time behind and in front of a camera, first time arguing my opinions out loud and learning more about what multiculturalism really means.” Hackney Community College student

“These young people and their peers are the ones who will define what being British means so it is great to hear such eloquent and passionate debate and opinions. I am so pleased I stumbled across this…..seldom do I have the chance to part of good news.” Mayor of Hackney

“Very informative and encouraging to see the level of discussion from students.” Deputy Head, Norbury School
