About the Practice
When disability or trauma is affecting the whole household, Dundee families may need wider support around sleep rather than a narrow bedtime plan. Barnardo's Dundee Child and Family Support Sleep-Related Route gives Dundee families a route into sleep support when broken nights are affecting school, work, mood and family life. The focus is practical parent-facing support, with clear attention to SEND, neurodivergence and the limits of non-emergency sleep advice.
