What is SPARC?

SPARC stands for
“Supporting People Achieving Real Choice”.

We are a local charity based in Warrington in the North West of England.
Our client group is people with learning disabilities and our main services are employment and independent travel training.

SPARC believes that the best form of social inclusion for people with learning disabilities is open employment and the key to getting a decent job is being able to cross roads and use local public transport independently.

SPARC has its own specialist Job Coaches and Travel Trainers who support our members into work and how to learn how to use local public transport.
SPARC has also developed its unique ITTP travel training pack for schools, colleges, social services and projects to use with people with learning disabilities.

The ITTP is a special training pack with a proven 80% success rate for people with learning disabilities. For more information on the ITTP please follow this link

One of our key partners is Warrington Borough Council and its Transport Department.
