TOBIN JAMES, TEMPUR® SAYS
"Many of us simply can't fathom the devastating decision to either pay for food and fuel, or to buy our child a bed. That's why, when Zarach founder Bex Wilson reached out to me via a handwritten letter, I knew that the work they did was special and that TEMPUR® had to be a part of their mission.
Sleep forms the building blocks of mental and physical health and development, it's the time for our brain and body to rest and recharge and it also allows us to retain the information we have learned throughout the day - especially important for children. However, we live in a time where beds have become a luxury item for hundreds of thousands of families.
Ending bed poverty so that all children in the UK can have safety, comfort and a quality night's sleep is the aim for all of us and we are proud to be supporting Zarach on their mission to achieve this worthwhile goal."
TEMPUR® AND ZARACH
A partnership to help end child bed poverty in the UK...
There are currently 4.5 million children living in poverty in the UK, with almost 900,000 children in bed poverty specifically 1. Zarach delivers brand-new mattresses, pillows, bedding, and bed frames to families in need around the UK as part of its mission to ensure that every child in England has a bed of their own. Bed poverty can affect a child's education due to increased tiredness and illness, with the charity working to ensure that every child has the best chance of learning and succeeding at school.2
To help them achieve their aim, TEMPUR UK has provided funding to help them provide these essential items to families in need.

TEMPUR® AND THE SCIENCE MUSEUM
Making science accessible and engaging for children...
In a collaboration that may as well have been written in the stars, TEMPUR® has been sponsoring the Science Museum's Astronights since January 2024.
The Science Museum's Astronights are overnight sleepovers for children aged between 7 to 11 years old. After a fun-filled evening of educational activities, children and their parents can sleep overnight in the Science Museum's galleries.
As well as providing financial support towards Astronights, TEMPUR® offers every guest who attends Astronights a free TEMPUR® Cloud Travel Pillow to sleep with overnight and take home with them the next day.
"TEMPUR® Material has a historic connection to space technology," says TEMPUR UK Managing Director, Tobin James, "and our products help to provide the necessary support and comfort to ensure a quality night's sleep, making this partnership doubly meaningful."
