Tourette Scotland is very pleased to have been invited to write a chapter on Tourette Syndrome for a reference book which will be used by medical practitioners and educationalists. The book is aimed at those who work with children and young people and seeks to overcome the misunderstandings that these young people have in school or visiting their GP.
The next meeting for the Lothian & Borders Support Group will be on Saturday 24th July 2010 from 11.30am to 4pm at the Village Hall, East Ord. For more info phone 01738 450411.

Training
We can now offer a Training Programme "An Introduction to Tourette Syndrome".
The programme can be adapted to suit all audiences although we are especially keen to target, inform and educate those in the health, education and social professions. The programme consists of a Powerpoint Presentation, Q and A Session and a Delegate Pack. A session is approximately two hours but this can be adjusted to suit your needs. Cost - £250 min + travelling expenses and overnight accommodation if necessary.
Please contact info@tourettescotland.org or 01738 450411 for further details and bookings.
