The weekend will be an intensive experience

Graham Carr-Smith, Helps Stop Snoring

Alcohol and cigarettes - both thought to exacerbate the problem - will both be banned from the trial at the Innkeeper's Lodge in Huddersfield.

"People ask me to move rooms when I stay in hotels and I can't stay with my girlfriend unless I'm in the spare room."

He added: "My snoring has even been known to vibrate walls, doors and windows."

Snoring affects around four million people in the UK and experts claim the consequences range from being an occasional nuisance to the break-up of marriages.

People snore if their airway is restricted during sleep, as air is forced through the mouth instead of the nose, and reverberates in the throat.

Experts say the noise is intensified if people smoke, drink alcohol or suffer from common ailments.

Remedies to solve the problem include sewing a tennis ball into the back of a pyjama jacket to keep the snorer from sleeping on his back.

However, organisers are hopeful that they can solve the problem for Stephen and his fellow noisy sleepers.

Reduce noise

Included in a packed agenda is a training session with the Huddersfield Giants Rugby League team.

They will also receive advice from professionals on diet, exercise and other factors contributing to snoring.

The six will also use Helps Stops Snoring, a clinically proven remedy, to help put a stop to their night time noises.

Graham Carr-Smith from the company said the project will be hard work.

"The weekend will be an intensive experience with professionals on hand to provide advice on diet, exercise and other contributory factors."

During Mr Jones' stay at the farm the noise he makes during sleep will be recorded by a sophisticated noise monitoring device.

Once back home in Flintshire his progress will be monitored by his partner Cath.

"I'm just hoping that the experts at the Snoring Farm will be able to put an end to Stephen's snoring, or if they can't do that, just reduce the volume a bit," she said.
