Day Opportunities for Adults with SEN at The Puddle Project
At The Puddle Project, we believe every adult with Special Educational Needs (SEN) deserves the chance to thrive, feel valued, and build a meaningful future. That’s why we’ve launched day opportunities for adults with SEN that are uniquely tailored to lead to paid employment, greater independence, and life satisfaction.
Why Day Opportunities Matter for Adults with SEN
Day opportunities provide more than just a safe, social environment—they are the stepping stones to meaningful work. For many adults with SEN, traditional routes into employment aren’t accessible. Our programme bridges that gap by focusing on:
Building real-life work experience
Developing confidence and independence
Encouraging skills-based learning
Providing purposeful routines
The Puddle Project: More Than a Service
Set in the heart of Warrington, The Puddle Project is an inclusive, outdoor-led community hub supporting all ages with SEND. Our day opportunities are carefully designed to offer progressive pathways, whether it’s through gardening, animal care, catering, maintenance, hospitality, or creative arts. These are not just activities—they’re employment-ready skillsets.
Tailored Employment Pathways for Adults with SEN
Each adult that joins our programme is supported by a personalised development plan. We focus on each individual’s strengths, interests and aspirations, helping them find their own route toward employment. Opportunities include:
On-site volunteering roles that develop into paid roles
Weekend family support roles (currently employing 4 individuals with SEND)
Work experience placements with community partners
Training in soft skills, such as teamwork, timekeeping, and communication
Paid part-time roles at The Puddle Project, where suitable



From Day Service to Paid Work: A Real Impact
We are proud to be already employing adults with SEN who have transitioned from our day provision into paid positions. These real-life success stories demonstrate what happens when the right support and environment come together.
Who Can Join?
Our adult day opportunities are open to individuals aged 18 and over with diagnosed or suspected Special Educational Needs. Whether you’re transitioning from education, looking to re-enter work, or want a fresh start in a supportive space—The Puddle Project welcomes you.
