Tourettes Action
Tourettes Action works to make life better for people with Tourette Syndrome. TS affects one schoolchild in a hundred, the same incidence as autism, and some 330,000 children and adults in the UK. We offer free information and support, promote research into better treatments, and fight ignorance, misunderstanding and prejudice.
