John Davidson, a Scottish Tourette’s activist featured in a film that brings renewed public attention to his condition, says he has cut back his working hours to cope with increased fame. According to reports, Davidson has long worked as a caretaker at a community centre in Galashiels, a role he has held since the early 1990s. Following the film’s success, he says his schedule and public profile have changed, prompting him to adjust his employment. He now splits his time between his long-standing caretaker job and activities related to raising awareness of Tourette’s. The accounts describe Davidson as continuing to work while taking on a higher public-facing role, framing the move to part-time work as a way to manage the demands that come with wider recognition. The reports do not detail specific arrangements of his new hours, but they consistently note that the change is directly linked to the film’s impact and the visibility it has brought him.
