PANS/PANDAS UK Charity
PANS (Paediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) and PANDAS (Paediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Syndrome associated with Strep) are devastating neuropsychiatric conditions that are currently poorly recognised, diagnosed and supported both medically and in schools.
One estimate suggests that up to 1 in 200 children suffer from this condition.
Please join our Facebook group PANS PANDAS UK, where you can obtain further support as and when needed.
