Our Sleep Success programme builds on the learning from the Foundation Programme offering a more in-depth exploration of sleep issues and providing strategies to explore.

It is suitable for both parent/carers and professionals. Sleep Success has been commissioned by a number of Local Authorities to ensure that their staff teams are all providing standardised, evidence based sleep information.

Learning Outcomes

At the end of this course you will be able to:

• Recognise the role of our circadian rhythm and the need for routine
• Identify sleep associations and sleep stages
• Use a sleep diary to identify potential sleep issues
• Develop good sleep hygiene for youngsters

The Sleep Charity works to support children, young people and their families to get a good night’s sleep.

Our methods are evidence based and research has shown that on average children gain an additional 2.4 hours sleep per night when using our approach. Our training has been developed by working in collaboration with young people and professionals in the field. We believe in empowering young people with sleep knowledge so that they can make informed choices about their sleep routines.

If you are concerned about a young person’s health you should always seek the advice of a GP or a healthcare professional.

Thanks to Awards for All who funded the pilot project for young people in South Yorkshire. We could not have developed this programme without their kind support.
