Today we are highlighting WorldSleepDay – an annual event intended to be a celebration of sleep and a call to action on important issues related to sleep, including medicine, education, social aspects and driving.
Sleep is essential to health and when we don’t get enough sleep, or our sleep is poor quality, we suffer the short and long-term consequences of sleep deprivation and fatigue. This results in irritability, less patience, less empathy, slower thinking, more sluggishness and less of an ability to cope with the unexpected.
At Neilcott, we understand that working in the construction industry can often lead to poor sleep quality as a result of irregular shift patterns, long hours, early starts & demanding workloads.
We are proud supporters of TheLighthouseCharity, who have partnered with Sleepstation to help combat this issue. Sleepstation offer a completely free and clinically proven sleep improvement programme to help address poor sleep in the industry. Sleepstation looks at the underlying reasons as to why people are having problems and has been proven to address even the most severe sleep issues. Dedicated support teams deliver a plan tailored to any of the identified issues so you can begin your journey to better sleep.
You can access Sleepstation via the Lighthouse Club app now.
