Nelson Longwe is one of our Directors and the other brain behind Break Barriers. Starting his career in retail at Sports Direct, with great ambition to make a difference, Nelson has since gained diverse IT and Communications experience in businesses. He caters to the customers with the care and support they need, as well as ensuring that the staff members are well managed and taken care of – more like a General Fitter!

Perhaps it’s his African heritage that drives him in persistently pursuing excellence! Yet. He understands that it takes a collective effort to make the dream work and seeks to carry everyone along in delivering quality services.

Nelson is known for his striving for excellence and having a thorough understanding of the whole picture when it comes to IT and communications, and business processes. His work speaks for itself with successful dealings in business and good reputation within and without the organisation and in the Health and social care space. In his words, “I love my job and the challenges that it brings but all days are not the same. We are still breaking the barriers for our customers to enjoy life.”

Nelson’s passion goes beyond business and directing the care and support affairs of Break Barriers – he also loves playing his well-shined Alto Saxophone, spending quality time with family and friends and travelling to see the many beautiful views in our world!
