    Hello @Alwiya4

    Welcome to the community, how are you today? 

    I am sorry to hear that your son is having trouble with sleeping, how long has this been a problem for him? And have you discussed the issue with your son's doctor?

    Scope has a service called Sleep Right, which is a free online, and telephone support service, that helps parents and carers of disabled children to improve their child's sleep, so it might be something that interests you. Find out more about Sleep Right here. 

    They have also made a series of podcasts, designed to give a detailed overview of how you can help your child to get the best sleep they can, listen to those podcasts here.

    Thanks for the update, I'm glad to hear you were able to get in touch. In the meantime, do access those podcasts I linked you to, I'm sure you'll find them helpful.
