Mission & Aims
Promoting Independence, Removing Barriers
Mission Statement:
Breakthrough UK's mission is to promote the rights, responsibilities and respect of disabled people.
Aims:
We have translated our Mission into a number of Strategic Aims, all of which are intended to ‘support disabled people to play a full, economically active role in society’:
- Aim 1 - To work with individual disabled people to support them to be independent, to seek employment and develop their careers.
- Aim 2 - To work with employers, providers and other agencies involved in the labour market to promote best practice in all aspects of recruitment, retention and progression.
- Aim 3 - To tackle the barriers and discriminatory policies and practices which disadvantage disabled people in the economy, society and the labour market.
- Aim 4 - To ensure our organisation demonstrates excellent practice through good governance, strong management and continuous improvement.
- Aim 5 - To ensure Breakthrough UK policy and operational activities are recognised as leading edge at local, national & international levels.
- Aim 6 - To explore, develop and promote the concept of Independent Living in a diverse cultural context.
More information on how these key aims will be delivered over the next five years are laid out in our Strategic Plan:
