At Gemini Wealth Management, supporting causes close to our hearts is something we take great pride in. This year, our team laced up their running shoes for the Royal Sutton Fun Run, and together, we’re thrilled to have raised £6,965 for our chosen charity, PANS PANDAS UK.
With our office, Gemini House, sitting right on the Fun Run course near Sutton Park Town Gate, the event couldn’t have felt more local to us. It’s a staple in the community calendar, and this year we were proud to take part not only as runners, but also as a Supporting Sponsor, with our Gemini branding featured on every marshal’s hi-vis bib across the 8.5-mile course.
Despite having a relatively small team of nine runners, the generosity of our supporters made all the difference.
“PANS PANDAS UK is a charity close to our hearts,” said Amanda Reid, Director at Gemini Wealth Management. “We’re so grateful to everyone who donated and helped us raise such a meaningful sum for a cause that truly matters.”
PANS PANDAS UK is a charity founded by a dedicated group of parents whose children are affected by PANS (Paediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) and PANDAS (Paediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal infections), little-known conditions that can cause sudden, severe changes in a child’s behaviour, including OCD, tics, eating restrictions, and other neurological and psychiatric symptoms.
“We’re incredibly grateful to the Gemini team for raising such a fabulous sum of money,” said Vicky Burford, CEO of PANS PANDAS UK. “This funding helps us continue our important work — raising awareness, supporting families, and influencing how these conditions are recognised and treated.”
The charity was registered in 2018 and continues to push for early recognition and understanding across the medical profession, education, and social care sectors — giving families the best possible chance at recovery and support.
As a firm, we’re proud to contribute to that mission and play our part in supporting the Sutton community through events like the Fun Run.
