A CAMPAIGN designed to help ensure young children get a good night's sleep is being backed by Bradford Council at different locations in Keighley district.

The council is supporting the Booktrust's Bath, Book and Bed campaign.

The scheme was set up to develop a regular nightly bedtime routine – which is associated with improved sleep in young children – while also inspiring a love of reading.

Activities in and around Keighley began on Monday (April 24) but continue today (April 27) with a Bath Book Bed stay and play session at Bangladeshi Community Centre, Kensington Street, from 1.15pm to 2.45pm.

A similar session will be held today at the Tree Tops centre, Rawdon Road, Haworth, from 10am to 11.30am.

Also today there is a Bath Book Bed Music and Rhyme activity at Daisy Chain Children's Centre, Silsden, from 2.15pm to 3pm.

Two more stay and play events will be held in Keighley tomorrow (April 28), one at Low Fold Children's Centre, from 9.15am to 10.45am and one at Rainbow Children's Centre, from 10am to 11.30am.
