A Redditch woman's life with Tourette's

Available for over a year

Terrina Bibb is a 31-year-old artist who lives in Redditch and has Tourettes - she first started having symptoms 10 years ago, but it took her four years to get a diagnosis. Tourette's Syndrome is a genetic neurological condition which causes motor and vocal tics - including whistling and involuntary sounds and movements - and around 300,000 people in the UK live with the condition. But it seems there isn't always enough support for those people. Our reporter Tom Edwards speaks with Terrina Bibb about her experience.
