We are looking to recruit participants with learning disabilities to a research study looking at sleep.

We would like to invite adults with a learning disability who have problems with getting to sleep, staying asleep, or who do not sleep for more than 6 hours per night to talk to us.

The study will involve an interview where we will ask participants about

  • how they feel about their sleep,
  • what causes them to have a bad night’s sleep and
  • what strategies they would be willing to try to improve their sleep.

In the interview picture cards will be used to help to answer the questions.

If you are interested in participating in this research project or would like to know more about the study, please email Lynette Harper at lynette.harper@northumbria.ac.uk.
