South Yorkshire CANN – Children’s Additional Need Network

Who Is South Yorkshire CANN?

‘CANN’ stands for ‘Children Additional Needs Network’.

South Yorkshire CANN is formed of third sector, voluntary community and statutory organisations working with families and carers with children and young people with additional needs, in South Yorkshire.

It has been established so that Member Organisations can share best practice, resources, ideas and opportunities, in order to improve access to information, training and support for families and carers across the South Yorkshire area and the region, and to help to create a more efficient and effective ‘market place’ to the benefit of all users of our services, and the organisations involved.

The aim of this website is to share those good practices and resources with the families who need them!

We are committed to creating an environment where all parents feel they can share the difficulties they are experiencing as parents of disabled children and young people. We acknowledge that some parents from Black and Asian Minority Ethnic communities may not feel confident about attending our typical meetings. Therefore, we are running a monthly session chaired by our trustee Melissa and our volunteer Thaeeba. Zoom details: Meeting ID 882 7654 8347, Passcode 027695
