Tourettes Action

Tourettes Action works in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and is the leading support and research charity for people with Tourette Syndrome and their families. 

TS is a neurological condition; the main symptoms are physical and vocal tics. Up to 85% of people with TS experience co-occurring conditions such as anxiety, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

Our vision is for people with TS to receive the practical support and social acceptance they need to help them live their lives to the full.

We provide services including a helpdesk, live chat, school training, grants and social events for adults and families with TS.
