Abstract: Head support (10) for a person for use primarily during air travel, comprises a head piece (12) adapted to fit around the forehead of the person and a harness extending from the head piece to an anchor section which is connected to the person. The harness (14) includes one or more adjustable straps (16) so that the person can sleep in an upright seated position while supporting his or her head. The anchor section may be a portion of the harness (14) which passes under the person's upper thighs so that when the person is seated on the portion it provides an anchor for the head support (10).
