Our mission is SUPPORTING, EMPOWERING & CONNECTING FAMILIES

Special Need Community (SNC) Community Interest Company (CIC), is a creative and innovative London-wide social enterprise created by a team of experienced parent carers to provide support, empower, and connect families. SNC, welcomes and supports all families with children, young people and young adults with special educational needs or disability from ANY background or disability in ANY borough of London and Greater London. We offer free membership, support the whole family and we are particularly passionate about the welfare and wellbeing of parents/carers and helping them to stay healthy, so they can be in a better position to continue to be a carer. We have an extensive London network and specialist on the SEND Local Offer and expertise on London Inclusive Playgrounds. We also created the London SEND Directory., which is a one-stop shop and marketplace, borough-by-borough, for special educational needs and disability (SEND). It provides information, support, products, services for families with children, young people and adults with special needs and disabilities living in London. We also provide information to professionals in schools, local authorities, and organisation in the SEND sector.

The London SEND Directory is managed by SNC London Ltd which is the trading subsidiary of SNC (CIC). It is a limited company, independently funded, and is a for-profit business set up to support the work of the CIC.

As parents and carers ourselves, we understand that life at different stages can be very challenging when you have a child/young person with SEN/disabilities. We provide a range of support services and drop-in events to help you overcome these challenges, and signpost to further help where necessary.
