Research has shown that 50% of the world’s population is sleep-deprived. In the first year of parenthood, mothers and fathers on average get almost 3 hours’ less sleep a night than they need, which can continue well beyond those initial 12 months.
How does that affect you as an employer? Parents make up a large proportion of the UK’s workforce and almost all suffer from some level of sleep deprivation at one time or another.
But it’s not just parents who suffer from sleep problems. 1 in 3 adults in the UK are affected by disturbances to their sleep, resulting in excessive daytime fatigue.
Lack of sufficient sleep has a significant negative impact on concentration, memory and overall health and wellbeing, and it can significantly affect a person’s performance and productivity levels at work.
So it’s vital to consider how much sleep deprivation may be costing your organisation.
Through talks, workshops or 1-to-1 sessions, our packages are tailored to suit your specific requirements to help improve the performance of tired employees. These are just a few examples of the sessions we’ve run:
Child Sleep Sessions
1-1½ hour session at city law firm
Aimed at parents of any-age child. This interactive session included a general overview of sleep, common sleep problems in children, causes and solutions, tips and tools to encourage better sleep habits, sleep training techniques plus a Q&A session.

Aimed at parents of age-specific children. This focused session included an overview of sleep for the specific age bracket, definitive suggestions and tools to improve sleep, detailed sleep training techniques, and followed by a Q&A session.
Full day 1-to-1 sessions at law firm
Aimed at parents of any-age child. 30-minute private sessions for individuals, providing specific tailored advice. Employees submitted an overview of their child’s sleep issue in advance, which allowed for sufficient time at the sessions to give practical, relevant and detailed advice.

Aimed at parents of children attending the nursery chain around the country. This informative webinar focussed on age-relevant sleep problems in children, with practical advice on how to improve them, followed by a Q&A session.
