Clocks Change

Clare FM

Show Notes

The clocks go back this Sunday, giving us an extra hour in bed but also marking the arrival of darker evenings.

Clare FM's Caitlin Earle has been out and about on the streets of Clare to ask how people feel about the clock change.

While most of us adjust naturally, the change can affect our sleep patterns, energy levels and daily routines.

So, how can we make the transition easier and protect our sleep as we head into winter?

To explain, Alan Morrissey was joined by sleep expert Tom Coleman.
