Tourette's: Care provision and tackling stigma

5 Live takes an in-depth look at the available care provision to diagnose and support people with Tourette’s, a neurological condition that causes a person to make involuntary movements and sounds. Only 1 in 5 of the NHS Mental Health Trusts in England and Health Boards in Wales contacted by the BBC say they provide at least one specialist in tic disorders, including Tourette’s syndrome. Producer Isabel Kimbrey, who was diagnosed at the age of 7 picks up the story and explores some of the stigmas. In this podcast you'll hear from presenter Aidy Smith, comedian Joe Black, and TikTok campaigner Holly-Anne Maria as well as from a range of experts and others with the condition. This content was first heard on 5 Live during Neurodiversity Celebration week in March 2024 and forms part of the BBC 5 Live’s Me, My Health and I series.
