Warning – There is a bit of bad language in this podcast.
Today features Louis P, who is new to the team and has a great future with North and South Podcasts. He speaks to Rachel F, who talks about her experiences with Tics and Functional Tic Disorder. We originally had two hours of material but edited it down for brevity. Thanks to Rachel for speaking so well, and with honesty. And well done to Louis for his first podcast! You are a natural mate!!!
