Jess Thom

Artist, writer, and activist Jess Thom is the co-founder of Touretteshero. Jess has Tourettes syndrome, a neurological condition that means she makes movements and noises she can't control, called tics. Jess will be in conversation with a member of The North Wall team, discussing how she has turned her tics into art, making theatre accessible, and advocating for change.
