The 'completely terrifying' moment I developed Tourette's aged 24
A man from Dorset has told Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Solent he wants to help destigmatise the image of Tourette's syndrome.
It's a condition that causes a person to make involuntary sounds and movements - called tics.
George Sutton, from Poundbury, unusually developed the condition late in life - aged 24 - whilst working at Kingston Maurward gardens and animal park.
It usually starts during childhood, and can improve after several years and sometimes go away completely. But there is no cure.
George spoke to Steve Harris on our Breakfast in Dorset programme.
