British Medical Auctions Unveils “FAC Up the System” for the Gavel Art Trail

British Medical Auctions (BMA) is proud to unveil its creative contribution to the Gavel Art Trail 2025—an initiative by Bidpath Foundation supporting vital charitable causes through public art and auction.

BMA’s gavel, titled “FAC Up the System,” is a bold tribute to the explosive Madchester music movement of the 1980s and 90s. Inspired by iconic acts such as Joy Division, New Order, The Stone Roses, The Fall, Oasis, and the legendary Factory Records and The Haçienda nightclub, the design transforms a traditional symbol of authority into a riot of colour, sound, and cultural history.

This hand-painted gavel is now live for bidding, with all proceeds going to support Bidpath Foundation’s mission to improve the lives of individuals facing some of the most difficult circumstances.

The initiative not only showcases BMA’s creative spirit but also reflects its commitment to giving back—using the power of auctions to drive both impact and awareness.
