We provide many services to our members.

Newsletters.

Keep up to date with Sleep Matters, our newsletter. Sleep Matters is produced four times a year and is delivered free of charge to members.

Help Lines.

Volunteers offer friendly and confidential advice on practical (not medical) matters to members and non members alike. Our help lines are ready to help anyone worried about sleep apnoea. Advice is given based on personal experiences.

We do not provide medical advice. If you suspect you may be suffering from sleep apnoea please contact your GP who will be able to refer you to a specialised sleep clinic.

If you are having difficulty in coming to grips with CPAP treatment or just need some practical advice ring one of our help lines.

Conferences.

Come along to our annual conference at which members and their guests see the latest equipment, listen to talks by medical experts and exchange views with other patients.

Awareness of Sleep Apnoea.

Ensure the world knows the risks of not treating sleep apnoea and how effective treatment can be.

Medical Alert Cards.

Anyone with sleep apnoea should carry our credit card sized plastic card. The card carries a message warning paramedics and doctors of the medical condition. The card also bears a contact name and phone number of your sleep clinic. A version is available for Nocturnal Hypoventilation patients.
