Safer Sleep Week 2025

10th - 16th March 2025
Safer Sleep Week is The Lullaby Trust’s national awareness campaign targeting anyone looking after a young baby. It aims to raise awareness of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and the simple advice that reduces the risk of it occurring.

What is Safer Sleep Week?

We know that greater awareness of safer sleep leads to a decrease in the numbers of babies dying.

Sadly around 3 babies a week still die from SIDS and if all parents were aware of safer sleep advice many lives could be saved. Around 700,000 babies are born every year in the UK and we need to continue to reach out to all new parents with our life-saving messages.

Safer Sleep Week 2025 will focus on what baby sleep should look like, versus when you may want to seek advice. We'll also bust the common myths that we see online surrounding baby sleep, and support you with ways to help when you're feeling sleep deprived.
