North Tyneside residents are being offered the chance for one-to-one counselling to help them get a good night's sleep.
North Tyneside Council has launched a 'sleep support' pilot scheme - offering self-help sleeping materials, workshops, and one-to-one sleep counselling. Council staff from across multiple services have been trained in "sleep awareness" and "sleep counselling".
A total of 14 residents have so far taken advantage of the service with the authority stating "feedback has been positive from selected families".
