Welcome to Keynsham Action Network
‘KAN’s’ mission is to empower people to build community. We do this in varied ways, but always intending to offer opportunities and connections. We believe that a community that is connected through people’s shared interests, concerns and passions will come alive, not only as individuals but as a collective. Such a cohesive community will create health and vibrancy.
