Touretteshero is a creative non-profit organisation that uses innovative methods to celebrate the humour and creativity of Tourettes – one of the most frequently misunderstood syndromes on the planet. Our objectives: To increase awareness of Tourettes and its challenges without self-pity or mockery. To take ownership of the laughter associated with Tourettes in order to provide a genuinely funny cultural alternative. To suggest informal ways of dealing with the challenging social situations that people with Tourettes often face. To run innovative events for children and young people with Tourettes that focus on the value of play, interaction and social inclusion rather than any associated ‘problems'.
