‘Game-changing’ device for people with Tourette's
It's been touted as a way to make living easier, in the most simple of ways, and a Worcestershire woman is helping bring it about!
Natalie Davidson lives in Droitwich and - before training others - was the only qualified teacher in the UK living with Tourette's.
She's taken part in a clinical trial of a new wristband - which drastically reduces or even stops their tics - delivering a signal to the brain, to keep them calm.
The device, called 'Neupulse', has been awarded £500,000 of Government funding, with the aim of making it available around the world, and regulatory approval in the UK, by 2026.
