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!

Thanks to all of the fabulous support of our neighbours we have sold nearly 50,000 of our "world famous" cheese scones. We're so close we can almost taste it. We're counting up to 50,000 and plan on making a big fuss of the person who buys our milestone cheese scone!

We expect to hit 50,000 this month and are watching closely and making plans. Will you be the lucky person who enjoys our 50,000th cheese scone?!
Why do our cheese scones taste so good? The trick is using real ingredients - real cheese, real butter and we keep it simple.
