Public benefits

The direct benefit flowing from our purposes is that parents no longer feel isolated. They will be able to communicate with other families and experts in the field and will have an opportunity to participate in activities for both parents and children. This will develop skills both within the family, the group, and the wider community. The

benefits will be demonstrated through the feedback received from members, the parent carers, the children and the wider community. The benefits will also be demonstrated through the publicity that the group can attract and through the numbers attending the activities which are to be laid on for them. There is no harm arising from our purposes. The Charity beneficiaries are children who have Tourette Syndrome, their parents and carers, the wider community who will gain knowledge of the Syndrome, and professionals working in this field. There is no private benefit flowing from our purposes.
