Our Model of Care

People with a disability live in families and everyone within that family experiences life differently.

We recognise this through our world-leading Model of Care (based on the Aspen Institute 2 Generation Model) by delivering personalised solutions for you and every member of your family throughout the different stages of your life.

Our Services

Your needs, and those of your family, change and evolve as you move through life. Our services are delivered through six key service areas, allowing for supports that can target one aspect of your life, or approached holistically to support a broad range of needs.

Services are offered in house at the Crann Centre, or remotely on location. We also offer a range of online services for individuals and groups.

Our services enable better health and wellbeing for adults, children and their families, empowering them to participate in work or education, social activities and in their community.

We collaborate locally, nationally and internationally to ensure that children, adults and families have access to the best information, innovative services and can be signposted to other agencies in our network who can provide additional supports.

Our Board of Directors blends the experience of parents of children with a neuro physical disability , Health Service professionals, business, philanthropy and third level professionals to effectively govern the Crann Centre in line with best practice and statutory requirements.
