Do you want to learn more about Tourette’s?
Whether you’ve recently received a diagnosis, are exploring the possibility, or simply want to deepen your understanding, this webinar offers a clear and supportive introduction to Tics and Tourette’s.
We’ll walk through what Tourette’s is, how it typically presents, and the wide range of experiences people living with the condition may have.
The session will also share practical, compassionate guidance on understanding and managing the condition, helping you feel more informed, confident, and empowered as you navigate your own journey or support someone else’s.
About our Guest Speaker

Dr Edward Palmer is a trainee Psychiatrist and researcher at the University of Birmingham. He has had symptoms of TS since early childhood, but was only diagnosed with the condition in his teens. It was at this point we came into contact with Tourettes Action and became aware of the amazing work they do and support they provide.
The session will run for one hour and will include time at the end for audience questions.
Tickets cost £5 to join.
Bookings will close at 5pm the day before the event.
