Bed Guru are offering a lucky individual a unique opportunity to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, here are the details. 

Apply to be a ‘Royal Mattress Tester’ to be in with the chance of winning a mattress that’s fit for a queen!

At 96 years old, and after 70 years on the throne, the Queen is now the longest reigning British Monarch. Royal fan or not, we figured this must be pretty tiresome work and that the Queen deserved a little shut eye. With the Jubilee approaching, we are presenting this unique opportunity to become Bed Guru’s own ‘Royal Mattress Tester’ to see if our mattresses truly are fit for a queen.

In actual fact the Queen’s mattress, the ”Royal State Bed” would set you back a whopping £125,000, so we’re assuming it’s out of most people budgets. Even if you were interested in investing, unfortunately the monarchs mattress is a rare find as only 60 of its kind were made, and took around 700 hours to make! Don’t worry though, at Bed Guru we believe everybody deserves to sleep like a royal! As part of our commitment to ensuring everyone gets a great night sleep, we want to give one lucky person the opportunity to give us invaluable feedback on our mattress comfort.

Whoever is successful in applying to be our Royal Mattress Tester will be asked to give us feedback on their experience, and in return will be gifted our Essential Pocket Sprung Mattress. You’ll be required to score your sleep over the period of a week based on comfort, firmness, softness, support and overall customer experience to see if our beds really are fit for a Queen.

Requirements:

• No previous experience or qualifications
• Must enjoy sleeping (who doesn’t?)
• Good sleep evaluation skills
• Space available for the mattress
• 18+ years old
• Living in the UK

• Be sure to send off your application before 5^th June

To prepare you for the role here are some of the Queen’s best kept sleeping secrets: 

• The Queen is said to set down her crown at the same time every night and rise to her reign again at the same time every morning. According to our resident sleep expert, Carl Walsh, going to bed and waking up at the same time each day is key to getting a good night sleep. Maintaining a regular circadian rhythm will help regulate your internal body clock to ensure you can develop a healthy sleeping pattern.
• It’s also rumoured that Her Majesty enjoys a spot of reading before bed to help her unwind. Carl recommends following the Queen’s rumoured ritual of reading before bed as it can help reduce stress and anxiety – which we’re sure the Queen has a lot of! He says that reading not only helps take your mind off whatever is worrying you as you focus on the plot of the book, but it also stops you scrolling on your phone before bed.
• The Queen has also been known to enjoy regular exercise whether that be horse riding or walking with her corgi’s. It’s no secret that physical activity during the day can help improve your quality of sleep at night. Carl says they are many ways that walking outside can help improve your sleep. Getting outside in the morning and exposing yourself to the natural light will help improve your circadian rhythm and again, help you develop a healthy sleeping pattern.
