Briefing pack for MPs
Ahead of the Backbench Business debate on diagnosis and treatment for PANS and PANDAS, scheduled to take place in the House of Commons Chamber on 25th June, we have prepared this briefing pack to support MPs who plan to attend or speak in the debate.
This pack brings together key background information, current challenges facing patients and families, and the actions we are asking the Government to take. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Health and Policy Lead, Katy Hindson: katyhindson@panspandasuk.org.
