There are several perks to getting a good sleep. We feel rested and refreshed, we’re more alert and productive and we’re considerably less stressed, putting us in a better mood to face the day. But what if we told you that getting a better quality sleep can also improve your overall health and reduce your risk of being ill?
A lack of sleep can massively contribute to us feeling under the weather, and is one of the main causes of a low immune system. So how is the immune system strengthened by sleep? And why is sleep so important for waking up feeling healthier and happier?

We’ve all been told that counting sheep in our heads will help us nod off to sleep. But the contribution sheep have on providing the perfect sleep goes far beyond that. With wool being regarded as the best material for sleeping, it’s no wonder more and more people are choosing wool bedding to snuggle up with at night. But the big benefit of opting for natural wool bedding over a synthetic alternative is that you know exactly where your bedding comes from. As the UK’s first traceable wool bedding company, we offer ethically produced wool from flocks of happy and healthy sheep that are cared for by our trusted team of farmers. This added bonus of traceability means you’ll get complete transparency on the source of your bedding – from the farm right through to your bedroom.
But where does wool come from? And how is wool made? Find out more about the journey of wool, from the field of sheep to the perfect bedding.

With summer on the horizon, it’s more important than ever to understand the benefits of good sleep hygiene. At Woolroom, our priority is providing a happier, healthier night’s sleep for our customers. And the easiest way to achieve this is to clean up your sleeping habits, whether that’s by changing your bedding, adjusting your personal routine or looking more at your overall health.
As the months get warmer, our bedrooms become more humid, increasingly tepid and generally less comfortable. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Discover how to maximise the quality of your sleep with our Sleep Hygiene Checklist.

Typically we’re ready for sleep around the same time each night, and we tend to wake up at the same time every morning, even when we don’t set an alarm. But with all of us staying snug inside our homes, the days are beginning to merge into one and our sleep patterns are suffering because of it. That’s why we’ve answered your questions on sleep schedules, from “how to fall asleep faster” to “why can’t I fall asleep?” and advice on how to fix sleep schedules.

From an early age I have always wanted to farm. I left school at 16 to begin working on the farm to assist my father. This was something that I felt strongly about as it has run in the family for generations. Today, we make conceded efforts to focus on strong animal welfare practices, understanding that happy sheep produce a better quality fibre resulting in a higher price per kilo of wool.
