Tourette's campaigner John Davidson given relaxed space at Bafta Scotland

Original: Tourette syndrome campaigner John Davidson to watch Bafta Scotland awards in separate ‘relaxed’ space https://www. thegu

Tourette syndrome campaigner John Davidson, the subject of the film 'I Swear', will watch the Bafta Scotland awards from a separate 'relaxed' space rather than the main ceremony. The arrangement has drawn attention as a question of accessibility and inclusion, with many seeing it as a considerate accommodation while others debate whether separating him from the audience is the right approach.

Why now: The unusual accessibility arrangement raises fresh debate about inclusion of people with Tourette syndrome at public events.
