It should come as no surprise to hear that sleep changes as we age. Nearly a third of our life is spent asleep. Infants spend most of the day asleep. Through youth and young adulthood the pattern of sleep that we have all come to accept as “normal” or “good” develops. As we grow older, sleep becomes lighter and more interrupted and other factors may impact on our ability to get that “good” night’s sleep. It is also no surprise that poor sleep impacts all aspects of our health and wellbeing.

As we age, our bones, joints and muscles begin to weaken and may not be as strong as they once were. Some tasks require more effort while others may seem close to impossible. But, getting older does not have to mean that life gets harder. There are many daily living aids that are here to help with all tasks, great and small.
