Pushing Barriers aims to support and empower youth from a refugee background through the universal language of sport. PB provides opportunity for children aged 12-18 years by offering financial and logistical support to play club sport. We identify what sport our participants would like to play, register them at a local club, provide transport to trainings and games while offering support throughout the season by collaborating with clubs, coaches, participants and their families. PB is a NFP organisation running entirely on volunteers.
