The Handsel Trust is collecting information and raising awareness about sleep issues for families with a child with disabilities / special needs in the belief that –

a)      many families do not report their disturbed nights to professionals because they do not imagine they would be able to help

b)     many professionals do not include sleep issues in their assessment of needs

It seems probable that the disturbed nights that very many families experience are a hidden problem in the UK

If you, as parent or professional, have experience of sleep issues please contact –
