Philip Leather our Marketing Assistant will be leaving us today after a years placement from Leeds University.  He has been a valued member of the team and will certainly be missed by all – good luck Philip with your final year at uni!

On a more positive note, Philip’s replacement Kate Duckworth will be joining us for the coming year from Huddersfield University and we would like to wish Kate good luck in her new role and hope she enjoys her time at Hainsworth.

This week saw the start of our Sleep Project.  Harriet Green a Master’s student from Leeds University is studying the sleep patterns under a number of synthetic and natural bedding options, including John Atkinson wool blankets.  The study is taking place over the summer with two students sleeping in our company’s showroom and is being filmed and monitored while they sleep to find out once and for all what will help us get the perfect night’s sleep!

With the Wedding season well and truely upon us, why not consider a John Atkinson blanket gift set for the beautiful bride and groom!  Our blanket gift sets come with a set of luxurious Peter Reed 100% Egyptian Cotton sheets and pillowcases to complement our exclusive woollen blankets which have the added touch of embroidery of the bride and groom’s name – perfect for the start of their married life together!
