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!

These trucks are being parked on Dominion Ave daily, the work men park there cars and use these daily and return them. Should they be park in a depot somewhere? They usually have waste on them, is this hazardous?
Having school kids on this street and heavy traffic due to road works in the area, this is dangerous for residents and visitors to the street.
Very rude considering the owners don't even live in the street.

Can anyone help us on this?

Or if the person responsible for this can park them in his own drive way!
