Question
Where can I find Tourette syndrome peer support online or locally in the UK?
Tourette-specific peer support exists in both online and regional formats, but age, audience, location, capacity and booking rules vary.
Current understanding
Tourettes Action provides a current starting route for facilitated online groups and regional or in-person support activity. Check the selected group's audience, age, location, booking, platform and access arrangements. Peer support is not diagnosis, medical advice, therapy or crisis care, and listing the route is not an endorsement of personal fit.

What evidence is still needed

Where people may disagree
- Some people prefer broader neurodivergent or informal communities rather than Tourette-specific groups.
When this answer should be revisited
