What your donations help us do:

Information and support

  • We create resources targeted at families and professionals to improve understanding and awareness
  • We run community events and online and in-person support groups to reduce isolation and create a sense of togetherness
  • We run a Youth Advisory Board to bring young people with PANS and PANDAS together and to allow their knowledge to inform our work
  • We dream of one day running an online meeting space for children and young people with the conditions to help them feel less alone and better supported by their peers

Awareness

  • We work hard to make sure that professionals and the general public are aware of PANS and PANDAS and know what signs and symptoms to look out for.
  • We promote PANS and PANDAS in print, in the press and in podcasts.

Educational

  • We offer free, online CPD-accredited training for schools to raise awareness of the conditions in education settings and improve support
  • We would like to create a toolkit for teachers to ensure that they have all the most up-to-date information at their fingertips to help them help young people with PANS and PANDAS

Making Change

  • We engage with health professionals from all relevant disciplines in order to pave the way forward for better diagnosis, treatment and support for children, young people and adults with PANS and PANDAS in the UK
  • We run and All-Party Parliamentary Group for PANS and PANDAS and we lobby parliamentarians to ensure that PANS and PANDAS are known about by MPs and ministers, and that the conditions are known about at the highest level of government
  • We meet with NHS England regularly to discuss the work of the PANS PANDAS Steering Group
  • We are driving forward the work towards having UK guidelines for management of PANS and PANDAS in place as soon as possible.
