A team representing Royal Sutton Coldfield based Gemini Wealth Management, has raised £6965 for its chosen charity PANS PANDAS UK.
Vicky Burford, CEO PANS PANDAS UK with Mark Thomas, Director, Gemini Wealth Management
Gemini Wealth Management Director, Amanda Reid, said: “PANS PANDAS UK is a charity close to our hearts and with our office, Gemini House, located on the Fun Run course, close to Sutton Park Town Gate, it’s a natural event for us to participate in and raise money for the charity.
“We had a relatively small team of nine, but we have very generous supporters who have helped us raise a substantial sum of money for our chosen charity.
“We were delighted to enhance our support of the Fun Run, by joining as a Supporting Sponsor this year with our corporate identity featured on all of the official hi-viz bibs worn by marshals in Sutton town centre and around the 8.5-mile course.”
Vicky Burford, CEO PANS PANDAS UK said: “PANS PANDAS UK is a charity which was established by a dedicated group of parents with children who are affected by these conditions.
“Determined to make a difference to the way these conditions are understood by the medical profession and the general public, the charity was registered in May 2018.”
“I’m incredibly grateful to the team from Gemini Wealth Management for raising such a fabulous sum of money which will help us continue our important work, influencing the way these conditions are understood by the medical profession, educators, social workers & the general public.
“PANS and PANDAS are neuro-psychiatric conditions meaning that they are medical conditions which have both neurological and psychiatric symptoms which come on in the wake of a common infection. Symptoms usually appear very quickly and can included OCD, tics and eating restrictions alongside a range of other symptoms. The symptoms can affect anyone at any time, so it’s really important to recognise the signs. Early intervention provides the best chance of a full recovery.”
“PANS and PANDAS are often grouped together because they share lots of symptoms in common. Both conditions can begin quite suddenly, and symptoms may come and go over time.
