Welcome to the Sleep Council Website!

If you're not sleeping comfortably - which you won’t if your bed's not right - then you’re not getting the quality sleep you need and without that you won’t have the mental or physical resources to stay calm, in control and on top of things.

This site offers lots of advice both on how to improve your sleep and how to go about getting the best possible bed. For instance, you can download pdfs or our popular leaflets, the Bed Buyers Guide, the Sleep Good Feel Good Guide and the new Goodnight Guide for Children. Or tune into our Relax and Exercise videos – which will take you through a wonderfully calming visualisation exercise to practice at bedtime; and some lovely stretching exercises to help to get you up and out of bed in the morning!

Then there's our My Bed Profile, a short questionnaire which will help you to identify the characteristics of the new mattress and bed you should be looking for, based on your individual needs.

Our Helpful Links page will give you lots of useful information about other organisations that might be able to help you – from back pain, to sleep apnoea to allergies, if you have a specific need, there’s someone out there who can help.

Not sure if your bed is really in need of replacement? Do our on line Bed MOT and you’ll soon find out.

We hope you find something useful while you are with us. Please contact us with any comments or suggestions.
