Launched at the end of last year, the ‘Breaking Down Barriers to Accountancy’ project brings together accountancy firms to explore ways to achieve meaningful change and improve social mobility within the profession.
The project is being led by Chair of the Purpose Coalition and former Education Secretary Rt Hon Justine Greening, who is herself a trained accountant.
The project has consisted of a series of workshops, attended by our team, which focus on outreach, access, recruitment and progression.
At the culmination of these sessions, an action plan will be produced featuring recommendations for the sector and accountancy firms to boost social mobility and widen diversity and inclusion.
The action plan is set to be launched at an event in Parliament in April 2025.
