Anyone can be affected by snoring, at any time in their lives. Patney’s founder Frances Anderson has experienced first-hand the impact snoring can have on your energy levels, confidence and happiness.
Frances spent years searching for an effective way to control her snoring, to no avail. Fed up and exhausted, Frances set out on a journey to create her own solution. The Patney sleep positioner is the result of an intensive research, development and testing process.
Frances sought independent validation of the Patney sleep positioner through the University of Otago. The independent study proved the Patney sleep positioner is an effective way to control snoring.
No one should have to put up with snoring. Take a look at Patney and experience the benefits a good night’s sleep can bring. We offer a 30-day money back guarantee, so on World Sleep Day you can celebrate having had a great night's sleep!

For Parks Week 2018 (10–18 March 2018), an exciting new augmented reality game with a environmental twist – EverGreen – is available at Lincoln Domain.
Turning recycling and rubbish collection into a fun and exciting game for kids rewards them for being responsible for their environment. The game teaches kids how to recycle rubbish by feeding different types of waste to the right tree. There is a lot of activity involved and as the kids pick up the virtual rubbish, the park gets greener and greener.
The New Zealand Recreation Association and Parks and Leisure Australia have again teamed up to help organise Parks Week. The week encourages councils and other organisations on both sides of the Tasman to run engaging events to raise awareness of the value of parks and open spaces, and to get people out of their living rooms and enjoying the outdoors.
EverGreen does that by encouraging kids and families to get out and explore their local parks whilst learning the fundamentals of recycling.
The average playing time of the game is 30–60 minutes with an average distance of 700–2000m covered.
There are also other Magical Parks games to choose from at Lincoln Domain:
· Augmentia – find kittens
· Prehistoria – collect dinosaur eggs
· Alien Scape – save aliens
Download the app on Android and iPhone and follow the in-game instructions. EverGreen will be available on the app until Sunday 25 March.
