Pure Innovations

Pure is a charity supporting people with a disability and disadvantaged people to fulfil their potential.

This page is for people we support in Greater Manchester. Pure became an independent charity following a TUPE transfer from Stockport Council in 2005. We are a values led, creative organisation and our objectives are to promote independence, increase choice and provide appropriate support to people to enable them to make the most of their capacity and potential. In 1987 Employment Services was a part of Stockport Borough Council, providing employment opportunities and day care for people with a Learning Disability. We began a journey to modernise traditional day care across Stockport, moving away from larger institutions into smaller, community based settings. This move came from a strong belief in the philosophy that if we can support people to hold valued roles within communities then people with a disability would feel valued, and be recognised by others to have value. In 2005 we left the Local Authority and set up the charity Pure Innovations, continuing our vision to support a diverse range of people to live independent, healthy and valued lives in their communities. Today, we continue with our aim of supporting people to have a fulfilled life, with a sense of purpose and belonging. This can mean different things to different people and so Pure Innovations strives to provide a wide and varied offer, ranging from employment, volunteering and independent life skills to pursuing a variety of hobbies and interests. Our values have not changed over the years and have become a part of our DNA. We will be aspirational and believe in people’s ability to achieve amazing things even when they don’t believe it themselves.

David and Dom recently enjoyed a cuppa and a catch-up, reflecting on how long they’ve both been part of Pure and how much things have grown and developed over the years 💙

Dom shared stories from the last 25 years at Pure, including his time working at the Visitors Centre at Etherow!

We’re really pleased to share that Pure Innovations has been awarded the Supported Employment contract in Salford 🎉

This means we’ll be working with people across Salford to help them build confidence, develop new skills and move towards meaningful, sustainable employment. Our approach will be in line with the Supported Employment Quality Framework (SEQF) so that the support we offer is personalised and focused on what matters most to each person.

Danielle Sidderley, Director of Employment at Pure Innovations, said:
“We are absolutely delighted to have been chosen to deliver this programme for Salford. Our team brings passion, expertise, and a genuine commitment to making a difference. We’re excited to welcome new participants, build strong partnerships, and support local employers to create inclusive and life changing opportunities. This is a fantastic offer for Salford, and we can’t wait to get started.”

We’re looking forward to working with partners, employers and the community to help create more inclusive opportunities across Salford.

Nigel and Amy have been having a brilliant time at Pure Kitchen, getting creative and baking up some delicious love heart biscuits 💙

There was plenty of laughter, teamwork and a little bit of flour everywhere… because if you’re not covered in flour, did you even bake? 😂

Congratulations to Bradley for successfully completing his Travel Training Programme! 🎉

Bradley’s mum wanted to share “just how wonderful the Travel Trainers are”, and Bradley himself told us he now feels very confident about travelling independently after completing the programme 👏

Six clients (all massive fans of Stockport County Football Club!) came together to create these chairs, which were kindly given to us by the club and will now be heading back to be used in their conference room 👏⚽

Throughout the project, every single client learned several new skills, showing huge patience and confidence as they tried something completely new.

A huge well done to all the clients involved 💙

Our Wellbeing Teams recently attended the Reddish Vale High School Year 10 Parents’ Evening to connect with parents who may be struggling and to share information about the support available locally 💙

With lots of services involved, it was encouraging to see such strong engagement and open conversations throughout the evening.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to stop, chat and find out more about the help on offer 🙌

Karl from the Our Future programme joined the wonderful community at Feed My City 💙

Karl has been putting his cooking skills to great use by volunteering in the kitchen, and it’s been brilliant to see him get stuck in 👏

He has such a kind, caring nature alongside a strong work ethic, and we know he’ll be a real asset to the Feed My City team.

We had a lovely visit up to St Chads Cafe Aroma! ☕🍰

The café was filled with the amazing smell of homemade bakes after Greg spent the morning in the kitchen preparing Biscoff cookies and Malteser tiffin, ready for customers to enjoy alongside a warm drink.

George and Jacob looking very smart in their new aprons at Hub 422 Café ☕👏

These aprons were proudly made by our clients at our Creative Hub, and it’s been brilliant to see them in action.

The team at Hub 422 have been working incredibly hard as we roll out some exciting changes, including a new menu, a new kids’ area, and new craft sessions 💙

We had a great wellness walk with our Ross Place class!

It was lovely to chat with other walkers who joined the group and even better to warm up with a hot chocolate afterwards ☕

A big thank you to Salvation Army Openshaw for such a warm welcome and for making everyone feel included.

Our Story

In 1987 Employment Services was a part of Stockport Borough Council, providing employment opportunities and day care for people with a Learning Disability.

This move came from a strong belief in the philosophy that if we can support people to hold valued roles within communities then people with a disability would feel valued, and be recognised by others to have value.

In 2005 we left the Local Authority and set up the charity Pure Innovations, continuing our vision to support a diverse range of people to live independent, healthy and valued lives in their communities.
