About Themis Wealth Management

Who are Themis?

Themis Wealth Management is the trading name of Gannon Wealth Management Ltd, proudly becoming directly authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority in 2020.

Founded by Kate Gannon, Themis was created after more than three decades in the profession, when Kate recognised it was time to take the final step: to build a firm fully aligned with her values, her standards and the level of service she believed clients truly deserved.

By establishing her own business, she created the freedom to shape every aspect of the client proposition — a thoughtful, independent and highly personal approach to financial planning centred on life, family and legacy.

Kate’s knowledge, professionalism and contribution to the profession have been recognised throughout her career. In 2016, she received one of the profession’s highest individual honours: Chartered Financial Planner of the Year from the Personal Finance Society.

Her standing within the profession has continued to grow. In 2025, Kate joined the Board of the Personal Finance Society, before being appointed Vice President in September 2025 — a reflection of the trust placed in her leadership, judgement and commitment to the future of the profession.

That same level of trust has also been recognised publicly. In December 2025, Kate appeared on The Martin Lewis Money Show, further reinforcing the confidence placed in her expertise both within the profession and by the wider public.

Earlier accolades include Achiever of the Year 2015 and Female Financial Planner of the Year in 2006, reflecting a long-standing commitment to excellence, leadership and trusted advice.

Today, Themis continues to bring that same standard of wise counsel, independence and care to every family it serves.

Alongside Kate Gannon, Themis is supported by Lucy Opie, whose calm oversight and exceptional organisation help ensure every detail is carefully managed.

Behind Lucy sits a wider team of experienced and supportive administrators and paraplanners, working seamlessly in the background to make every aspect of your journey feel smooth, responsive and well cared for.

Together, this creates an experience that is personal, reassuring and highly considered — giving you confidence that every detail of your financial life is being looked after with care and professionalism.

At Themis, we believe the best financial planning starts with listening. By taking the time to truly understand your life, your priorities and the stages still ahead, we build a plan that moves with you as life evolves.

Our role is to take the pressure away, so you can focus on living life to the full. Behind the scenes, we carefully build, monitor and adapt your financial plan to help future-proof both your needs and those of your family.

Wherever possible, our focus is on helping you continue doing what matters most — enjoying the life you want to lead, with confidence in the decisions that support it.

Every client relationship is built around thoughtful, flexible and highly professional planning, designed to help you achieve your life goals with clarity and peace of mind.

Why “Themis”?

Named after Themis (pronounced Themm-is), the Greek Titaness of wisdom, justice and good counsel, our name reflects the values that shape every client relationship.

In Greek mythology, Themis represented wise judgement, order and the ability to see the bigger picture. Those same principles sit at the heart of how we guide families through important financial decisions.

For us, true financial planning starts with understanding the life behind the wealth. It begins with listening, thoughtful conversation and taking the time to understand your ambitions, your concerns, your family and the future you want to create.

Investment portfolios, pensions and cashflow planning are, of course, important. But they are tools, not the purpose.

The real purpose is stewardship: helping you make wise decisions, protect what matters most, and use your wealth to create a life of freedom, security and meaning — on your terms.

Themis stands for calm guidance, wise counsel and a considered approach to wealth that places your life, your family and your legacy at the centre of every decision.
