You don’t need to be best mates with your neighbours but they might be the people who will support you in an emergency, or they may need your support. Don’t wait for an emergency before you say ‘hi’ at the gate or over the fence. If there’s something going on in your neighbourhood this weekend – join in.

Here are some useful links to help you prepare for an emergency:

Megan Leov Reporter from Marlborough Express

Staff would be trained in how to close the doors of vehicles quietly........ And suggestions a condition be included to ensure vehicles are kept to a standard which reduces, for example, the squeaking of a sliding door.

Happy World Sleep Day neighbours! Or is it? At Patney we believe a good night’s sleep is key to finding the energy to live your life to the fullest, so on World Sleep Day we're here to talk about snoring!

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!
