The Sleep Buddy trial is open for recruitment at the University of Southampton! Parents or carers of children aged 6-12 with diagnosed ADHD and sleep problems may be eligible to take part.
The trial is to test the effectiveness of ‘Sleep Buddy’ – a website designed to help parents and carers improve their child’s sleep. Parents/carers who sign up will be asked to complete some questionnaires and take part in a call with a researcher to confirm ADHD diagnosis. They will then either be allocated to access Sleep Buddy straight away, or access it in 6 months time. All participants will be followed up with further questionnaires at 3 and 6 months.
Please share this link to further information with any families you work with that may benefit from using Sleep Buddy: www.discasleep.org.uk/get-involved
Alternatively, get in touch with sleepbuddy@soton.ac.uk if you would like us to provide you with recruitment materials such as flyers or posters.
