B Healthy Together will be holding a workshop aimed at improving your sleep quality at the Broomhouse Hub on Wednesday 15 March 2023, 12.30pm – 1.30pm with lunch provided from 12.00pm.
The workshop will be run by Dr Holdsworth, a local GP with a special interest in sleep and the immense power and role it has on health and well-being.
For adults getting between seven and nine hours of good quality sleep can help to build up our long-term disease immunity. The maintenance of healthy immune cells relies on us getting enough sleep if we are to effectively fight infections and even some cancer cells. Sleep deprivation (less than five hours a night) can damage our body’s immune function, putting us at greater risk of more serious or prolonged infections and increasing the risk of other chronic illnesses including some cancers.
