Macmillan has partnered with Big Health to aim to improve the quality of life for people recently diagnosed with cancer in the UK, through instant access to mental health support, at no cost to them. Our partnership enables customers to access safe and effective solutions for insomnia and anxiety. Day or night, at home or in hospital, Macmillan and Big Health can provide trusted mental health support, immediately accessible with no waiting lists.
Living with cancer can bring changes that make sleep more difficult. If poor sleep has become an ongoing problem, Sleepio offers a clinically digital treatment for insomnia.
Sleepio, delivers cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which is recommended in NICE guidance as the first treatment to try for long-term insomnia, ahead of sleeping medication. Rather than masking symptoms for a night, it works on the habits and worries that can keep insomnia going.
Sleepio is available for free through Macmillan, with no prescription or referral needed. Download Sleepio from the Apple App Store or Google Play, or visit sleepio.com/macmillan
to get started.
Daylight, for worry and anxiety, helps people gain control over their anxiety with personalised exercises and content. It’s available when needed the most, providing people with cancer with evidence-based techniques to cope in the moment.
Please note: Both Sleepio and Daylight are now available free of charge to anyone living with or beyond cancer in the UK.
