Sleep Support. Helping Families To Help Themselves through our Sleep Clinic.
We are very proud of our specialist sleep services and we can now offer support to adults as well as children and young people struggling with sleep issues.
Both our adult and children’s services are commissioned by West Lancashire Clinical Commissioning Group and therefore all referrals have to be registered with a West Lancashire GP.
Twinkle House can offer you support through our Sleep Clinic. GP and Health/Social Care referrals welcome.
Adult Service
- The workshop is arranged over the course of four weeks. During weeks 1, 2 and 3 a one-hour workshop is held. On week 4 an individual 1:1 session takes place with the Sleep Therapist to discuss workshop feedback how the client is implementing the changes/insights they have learnt during the course of the workshop.
- All workshops will include a maximum of 6 adults. The Sleep Therapist will guide each session and will use shared experience and peer support from the candidates.
