Brent

Name: Brent Zillwood
Age: 19
Year of the Fix: 2010
Location: Plymouth
Campaign: To raise awareness of Tourette's syndrome

From the age of 15, I have had Tourette's syndrome.

 

From physical ticks, random noises, and sometimes swearing, there are quite a few things to contend with living with Tourette's.

 

I worked with Fixers to produce a short film which highlights the difficulties I face with the condition, and ways in which I have learnt to combat Tourette's syndrome. My aim is to encourage others to control the condition through creativity.

 

My main message to others with Tourette's is not to give up - continue to find ways to live with the condition. It is not easy, but I want to give a little bit of hope to others, like me.

 

Since completing my project, I have gone on to win a Fixers award – presented by Big Brother winner Pete Bennett, who also has Tourette's.

 

I finished my University degree in filmmaking, and in 2013, I starred in Channel 4’s reality dating series ‘The Undateables’.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with my Fix:

 

Alex Littleboy Richard Craig
Samantha Foot Patrick Sheehan
Lydia Parsons Sophia Hirst
Alex Wolfe Billy Filmer
James Warren Josh Ropen-Knight
Lily Bendall Andy Rollinson
Hattie Robinson Ben Stevens
Andrew John Pellett Michael Moy
Sam Jones

I attended a music night organised by fellow Fixer Tom Carpenter to raise awareness of Tourette's. Around 150 people came along and I appeared on stage with Tom and Big Brother winner Pete Bennett to answer questions asked by audience members. Click here to read a story about the event.

 

We received the following feedback after the music night:

 

Charlotte (25) : 'A very informative and enjoyable evening. It was so interesting to have an insight into something that for some is so unknown - along with some great music.'

 

Elliot (13): 'Tonight was great. I loved seeing some famous people with Tourette's as it boosted my confidence.'

Louise (35): 'A fantastic evening - thank you Fixers for organising this event. Tom has a great voice and will go far! Pete and Brent are lovely guys.'

Emily (24): 'I got to meet Pete and Brent. It helped me to boost my confidence in myself and helped me feel like I can achieve anything if I believe in myself.'
