“Breaking Barriers brought unparalleled creativity, professionalism, and empathy to the
project. Given the sensitive nature of the subject matter, combined with the sometimes
chaotic filming environments—like the Reading Festival—it was essential to have a
production company that could balance organization, passion, and focus. Breaking Barriers
excelled in this, ensuring I felt safe and comfortable at all times while seamlessly guiding me
through my scripts and managing the recruitment of interview guests.”

Geogria Harrsion, Television Personality

The end result is a great showcase of our work far superior in quality to that we could have achieved ourselves and worth the investment.”
