Singer Lewis Capaldi visited a university to test out a new Tourette's device ahead of one of his gigs - before offering staff free tickets to see him perform. The Scots star, who recently opened up about being diagnosed with the syndrome, tried out the gadget, which is aimed at reducing tics at University of Nottingham.
Lewis, 26, was performing that night on his worldwide tour at the city's Motorpoint Arena and popped in to visit the research team last Friday (January 27). And he was said to be so impressed by the Neupulse device, which is worn on the wrist like a watch, that he invited all the staff to his concert that night.
Professor Stephen Jackson who has led the research, said the results for Lewis had proved 'remarkable'. He said: "Lewis stated that the stimulation made him feel calmer and the device clearly suppressed the head and shoulder tics which can be quite painful for him.
