How to manage sleep problems effectively in people with neurodevelopmental conditions

Description: Sleep is a complex developmental process that underpins all waking behaviour and can impact how you feel and function during the day. Getting enough sleep is vital for our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Research has suggested that as much as 86% of children with additional needs have sleep problems. This can include difficulty getting to sleep or staying asleep, sleeping too much or disturbed episodes that interfere with sleep.

These sleep problems can also place a toll on their parents and caregivers, impacting on relationships and affecting emotional wellbeing.

This webinar will help parents, carers and professionals understand the sleep process and offer some strategies for managing sleep issues.
