Autism Friendly Bed
Jamie Knight is a 29-year-old research engineer at the BBC, who needed to modify his home environment, (specifically his bed) to suit his needs. Being autistic, he found that “a typical environment is pretty chaotic” which means his brain is in constant need of structure and predictability.
Jamie’s Lion is a 4ft-long soft toy which never leaves his side, giving him comfort and grounding him in moments when he feels most overloaded and anxious.
After taking big steps forward in independent living, Jamie approached us for help with his bed as he was spending more time sleeping at home alone. He’d found standard beds difficult to sleep in as they didn’t meet his needs for robustness and security.
