Covid-19

"All vaccines, including the new Covid ones, carry a tiny risk of serious side effects. But does that mean we shouldn’t take them?"

We are very sorry to confirm that due to the ongoing pandemic situation and the need to protect the health and safety of the public, Narcolepsy UK are unable to host a conference this year. The annual conference has been a feature of Narcolepsy UK activity for decades and we did not take this decision lightly. We are aware that the annual conference is a great source of support to many people, and something that many look forward to. We hope to be able to welcome you all again next year.

Hello everyone, here at Narcolepsy UK we think it is important to support each other in these very difficult times, so we are doing Online Support Meetings to help people with narcolepsy and their families/carers. If you want to chat to other people with narcolepsy or maybe you are feeling lonely, get in touch with me - Liam Sloan, Volunteer Coordinator at Narcolepsy UK and we will schedule you into one of the group chats, 4 per group. Alternatively you can also have a one on one with one of our staff/volunteers if needed.

World Sleep Day® is Friday March 13, 2020 and will incorporate the slogan, 'Better Sleep, Better Life, Better Planet.'

Traditionally, Narcolepsy UK have marked mid-March as an important date in our calendar for raising awareness. Historically, this has broadly aligned with the Spring Equinox / European Narcolepsy Day & similar events run in the USA such as Sleep Awareness Week & Suddenly Sleepy Saturday.
