Hi @hel80 - welcome to the the online community. There are lots of friendly people on here with similar experiences of sleep difficulties so I hope that helps. In the meantime, here are some links you might want to try:
Scope offers a sleep solutions service but it is only available in certain areas.
You can also read our experts’ tips on sleep difficulties at www.scope.org.uk/sleep.
Try the Children’s Sleep Charity
Contact a Family also has a useful guide that offers parents and carers information on Helping your child sleep.
Best wishes, Alex
