The Scottish Association of Sleep Apnoea was formed in 1996 to promote public awareness of sleep apnoea and provide information and support for sufferers and their families.
SASA's aims are to increase the public and professional understanding of sleep related disorders and to reduce driving accidents and other health problems associated with untreated sleep disorders.
The Association provides information leaflets about sleep apnoea and snoring, and their significance, and these are distributed through doctors surgeries to help educate the public health professionals, sufferers and their families. Additional information can be obtained through our website which is kept up-to-date with the latest news and findings. Support for sufferers and their families is provided through local support groups.
SASA's Annual Conference is attended by patients, partners, doctors and nurses and is a useful forum for the discussion of sleep apnoea and related problems It also provides an update on research and all matters regarding sleep apnoea. For more details, please visit our News and Events page.
Without fundraising it would be impossible for SASA to provide the support and information which sufferers and their families need, and we are always looking to increase our membership and fundraising activity. Fundraising for research, publication of the research and such projects are agreed by the Management Committee. You can apply for membership by emailing John Paul or write to: John Paul, 29 Avon Crescent, Broughty Ferry, Dundee DD5 3TX.
