Up to 45% of adults are sleep deprived.

According to a study from the Sleep Foundation, women are more likely than men to have trouble falling asleep, waking too early, feeling unrefreshed, exhausted and irritable, even when they sleep as much as men.

How lack of sleep can affect your day

If you're tired, you are less likely to perform at your best, making it difficult to concentrate and make decisions.

If you've had a restless night's sleep, you are more likely to be irritable & stressed during the day ahead.

Consistent poor sleep can affect your long term wellbeing and may make you prone to more serious health conditions.
