The Community Action Network (CAN) is an initiative which brings together charities, civil society groups, churches, community and national organisations, and campaigners with a shared commitment to tackling poverty and supporting people in their community.

I am privileged to chair the group.  CAN allows members to share their expertise, raise awareness of different issues facing their community, and work collaboratively to support people in Motherwell and Wishaw and across Lanarkshire.

We warmly invite individuals and organisations with an interest in community action to join the Community Action Network.

The Network provides an opportunity to share knowledge, exchange ideas and highlight the fantastic work taking place in our communities.

If you or your organisation would like to get involved, or if you would be interested in presenting your work at a future meeting, please contact our office at clare.adamson.msp@parliament.scot

We welcome new members and look forward to hearing from individuals and organisations who would like to share their experiences, expertise and ideas to help strengthen communities across Motherwell and Wishaw
