Boot camp answer to a snore subject; ADVICE: Noisy nuisances signing up to service giving loved ones sweet dreams.

Byline: Alison Dayani

BIRMINGHAM'S worst snorers are set to be given their marching orders by loved ones - and sent to a Snoring Boot Camp.

Sleep-deprived spouses have the chance to put forward their noisy nuisance for a three-day grunt-busting course in a top secret location.

Birmingham's worst snorer will then join the loudest from other cities to take orders from army-style leaders on everything from sleep advice to gruelling exercise to bring down the decibels.

Graham Carr Smith, from Help Stop Snoring, which organises the boot camp, said: "With more than 15 million snorers in the UK alone, we're pretty sure there must be a good deal of tired and grumpy partners in Birmingham who are desperate for a peaceful night's sleep.

"After the success of last year's event, which saw five out of our six snorers seeing a dramatic reduction in the level of their grunting, we thought we'd bring Boot Camp back to give people in Birmingham another chance.

"The aim of the event is to provide as much information as possible to the selected snorers and their families, helping them to reduce or stop their snoring problem altogether.

"This, combined with the Boot Camp itinerary of exercise and healthy eating, should provide some winning results."

The worst snorer will be picked from lifestyle and snoring history to line-up with five other snorers from across the UK to make up this year's Boot Camp cadets. A leading Ear, Nose and Throat specialist and team of fitness and nutrition experts will also be at hand.

Lynne Chadburn, who took part in last year's event after her granddaughters put her forward, said: "I enjoyed every aspect of the Boot Camp.

"The content was spot on with lots of information and guidance. By applying the knowledge I was given and using the Helps Stop Snoring products my family has been able to enjoy a bit more peace at Nanny's house when they stay over!"
