Sleepbreeze - the personal cooling people

Sleepbreeze Ltd. was started in 2005 by husband and wife team, Andy & Jill Buxton and is based in Alton, Hampshire, England.

Since starting the company we have tried to put something back into the community.

This page shows some of the things we are involved with.


Sleepbreeze supporting the British Made for Quality campaign

Rather unusually these days our product is made in Great Britain, something we're proud of. In our small way we wanted to promote the idea of making things using the resources and talents in our own community and providing local employment opportunities.

We were looking for a way of advertising this fact and stumbled across British Made for Quality.

Since joining the organisation we've become active members, working behind the scenes and we run the BMFQ page on facebook - join us free on facebook and help support the campaign (you'll need to sign up for a facebook account to do this).

Hampshire Ambassadors

 

The Hampshire Ambassadors Scheme

Hampshire Ambassadors are a group of people who during the course of their business and private lives promote business and support the economy of Hampshire.

I joined the scheme, having worked in the county for some 25 years, for many years as a government scientist working at Gosport and Farnborough before starting my own business - Sleepbreeze Ltd, based in Alton.

"You make a living from what you get, but a life from what you give", so said Winston Churchill, so I was very proud to join the scheme and put something back into the community that has given me so much.

If you are passionate about Hampshire and would be proud to be a 'Hampshire Ambassador'  contact Hannah Payne at Hampshire County Council:

STAR-TIDES

 

Sustainable Technologies, Accelerated Research-Transportable Infrastructures for Development and Emergency Support.

What a mouth full. So, we tend to call it TIDES for short nowadays.

We've been working in the TIDES team for a number of years now, providing advice about cooling for situations where there is little electricity or water.

The Sleepbreeze cooler has been showcased at a number of TIDES events, including a demo in the centre court of the Pentagon! And the team have even taken it off to Burning Man in the Nevada desert!

Sustainable Awards finalist 2008

 

Sleepbreeze has been a finalist in the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Sustainable Business Awards two years running and have impressed the judges more each time.

As a hugely energy efficient way of keeping cool our product has rightly featured in the Environmental Technology & Innovation category. However, that hasn't stopped us looking carefully at the way we do business. We're well known for selecting local suppliers for our goods and services, reducing the carbon footprint of our product.

This also fits neatly with our support for the British Made for Quality campaign. Building products locally to create employment opportunities in the community in which we live.

Bob offers one-to-one tuition and guidance for anyone who would like to take up photography as a hobby. He has stunning locations around the Hampshire and Surrey borders lined up for anyone interested.

Go on, try something different and learn a new skill!
