Sleep

Around 4 in 10 children will experience a sleep problem at some point and this rises to 8 out of 10 children where there is a diagnosis of Special Educational Need or Disability (SEND). These problems are typically persistent and do not resolve themselves without intervention.

The Sleep Charity have created an eBook which is aimed primarily at parents, but it is also focussed towards educate health professionals, children’s centres, primary schools – anyone who works with children and their parents.

We want everyone to understand how important sleep is to good health, the impact of sleep deprivation and how we can help to prioritise sleep.
