Save on mattresses, pillows and more with these Simba discount codes

Independent28-02-2025

If your mattress has loose springs, your pillow is feeling lumpy or your duvet is starting to come apart, it might be high time that you invest in some new goods to improve your sleep. The NHS recommends that adults get between seven and nine hours of rest per night, but Mental Health UK estimates that almost one in every five people struggles with their sleep routines, which doesn't do us any favours.
Whether or not you consider yourself to fall into that 20 per cent category, the quality of your sleep matters, too. Sleeping on a comfortable mattress can have a profound impact and ensure that you wake up feeling more refreshed, able to focus, and in a better mood. Similarly, the right tog duvet will keep you at the right temperature through the night, and a good pillow will provide essential support for your spine, neck and head.
A brand that knows a thing or two about sleep is Simba, a British mattress brand at the top of its game. Simba's hybrid luxe mattress even landed the top spot in our resident sleep expert, Sarah Jones's, round-up of the best mattresses for 2025. Simba turns 10 years old this year, and has absolutely soared over the last decade with its offering of hard working, high quality products.
In the pursuit of a great night's sleep, our resident team of deal hunters here at The Independent have been working hard to find you the best deals and discount codes on Simba's award-winning selection of products. Keep reading for all the latest offers and our selection of top buys.
Until 6 March, Simba is offering an incredible sale event named the Mega Sleep Giveaway. Customers will receive free pillows, duvets and protectors with selected mattresses, so there's no better time to shop. With the purchase of an essential hybrid mattress (from £449, Simba.com), you will receive two pure pillows, worth £60 each. But for those who are going for all out luxury, buying either the hybrid luxe (from £1,199, Simba.com), hybrid ultra (from £1,899, Simba.com), or an Earth apex mattress (from £1,299, Simba.com) will get you two hybrid pillows, a hybrid duvet, a summer hybrid duvet, and a mattress protector – which is an incredible deal that could save you up to £875.
If saving money is more of a priority for you than getting some free extras, you can shop Simba's mattresses for less when buying them refurbished. The mattresses are examined by hand and sight, to make sure they're good to go. Then, whatever needs to be replaced is taken care of, and the mattress is deep cleaned or sanitised to hospital standards. The brand's hybrid mattress, for example, is priced at £349 when shopping refurbished (Simba.com), but is £599 full price (Simba.com).
Finally, Simba wants to bring great sleep to all, so it is offering a handsome discount for key workers, students and charity workers. Forget the days of sleeping on a lumpy old mattress that has seen out dozens of terms in your uni halls, or resting your head on a flat pillow after a long night shift, and treat yourself to a purchase from Simba with 20 per cent off. All you need to do is verify your eligibility and you'll receive exclusive discount codes to use on your next purchase.

The Independent 's band of deal-hunters are dedicated to finding you the best savings. As Simba is one of our tried and tested favourite brands, we're on the constant hunt for ways to help you shop their products for less, whether through an annual sale, with the use of discount codes, or in a flash deal.

Chloe Meadows so ‘scared' she ignored ulcerative colitis symptoms for a decade

The former star of The Only Way Is Essex, 33, first discovered blood in her stool, a symptom of ulcerative colitis, when she was 16. 'I went to a college where I boarded when I was 16. I was staying away from home and I was living in a student house and there was blood down the toilet', she told Dr Oscar Duke's Bedside Manners podcast. 'I remember I told my mum and I was like, there's quite a lot of blood down the toilet. I'm not really sure what's going on. 'She was of course like, go to the doctors. I went to the doctors, and they said that I would have to have a colonoscopy, which is a camera into the bowel.' Meadows added: 'At this point in my life, I had never really ever been to the hospital. I'd never been sick. 'I'd never had any procedure or operation. I'd never been sedated. I'd never had anything and the doctor referred me and I got this letter, and this is awful, but I got this letter and I just never went to the appointment because I was terrified. 'Then I ignored it and what would happen, which is what I realise now, is that I can go into remission, I can go into a flare-up in remission. 'It would stop for periods of time so that the blood would go away. I'd be like, 'Oh, cool, it's gone away, I'm better. There's nothing wrong with me'. 'I'd go through years where it wouldn't happen and then it would happen again, and then it would stop again. 'I would probably lie to my mum about how much it would happen because she always pestered me about it and I was like, 'No, it's fine'. 'I just got on with it and ignored it. I think I was scared of having any procedure done. 'I was also scared of what they were going to tell me … I was just terrified, which is not really a reason not to go to the doctor, but I think that's just what I thought. 'I was young as well, so I would forget when there wasn't blood down the toilet, I would completely forget.' Ulcerative colitis is a long-term condition where the colon and rectum become inflamed, according to the NHS website. Symptoms include recurring diarrhoea, which may contain blood, extreme tiredness, loss of appetite and weight loss. Meadows said she had some health checks aged 26, 10 years after her symptoms first appeared, after she went on a diet at a time where she was also losing a lot of blood. Her mother intervened and said she should go to the doctors and get a blood test as she looked 'grey'. While she was out filming, after she had the blood tests, Meadows received a number of missed calls from her father who then texted her to say a doctor had advised her she should got straight to A&E because her 'blood was so low'. 'I went to the hospital. I had to have all of these checks and these iron infusions and that was where it started,' she said. Meadows also revealed that she had 'probably my longest flare-up' after filming a nerve wracking scene on Towie. Some people with ulcerative colitis may go for weeks or months with very mild symptoms, or none at all (remission), followed by flare-ups and relapses, according to the NHS website. Treatment options include corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and surgery. Charity Crohn's And Colitis UK says there are more than 300,000 people in the UK living with colitis.

Women with genetic cancer risk being ‘missed' due to testing gaps

A lack of testing for Lynch syndrome also means some cancer patients are unaware of their risk of developing other cancers, academics said. Lynch syndrome is a rare condition which runs in families which puts people at a higher risk of developing cancers of the bowel, womb and ovaries. It is caused by a mutation in the gene that fixes mistakes in DNA when it is copied, which can lead to uncontrolled cell growth. Patients with bowel or womb cancer should have their tumours assessed for markers of Lynch syndrome, according to guidance for the NHS. If these markers are identified, patients should be referred for genetic testing so the diagnosis can be confirmed and they can get support and advice about cancer risk for themselves and their family. A new study by academics at the University of Edinburgh found not all womb cancer patients are being sent for genetic testing. Researchers examined data on 2,500 womb cancer patients across the UK and Ireland between 2022 and 2023. We have launched a Guide to #LynchSyndrome to help provide information and support to anyone who thinks they may have it, that it may run in the family, or have found out they have — The Eve Appeal (@eveappeal) February 13, 2023 They found that 91% of tumours were tested for markers of Lynch syndrome, but the test results were not routinely communicated to the wider clinical team. This means that follow-up genetic counselling and blood tests were not always arranged. Of the 181 participants eligible for genetic counselling, just under two-thirds (64%) were referred for appointments, according to the study, which has been published in the journal BMJ Oncology. Researchers said those who were referred faced long waits, resulting in high dropout rates, meaning only 48% of those eligible went on to get the test. Today's #LynchSyndromeAwarenessDay. Our policy team sat down with our supporter, Jane, to share her experience. As well as highlighting what else needs to be done to improve Lynch syndrome care. Read our blog: — Bowel Cancer UK (@bowelcanceruk) March 22, 2025 Experts from the university said gaps in testing mean some womb cancer patients with Lynch syndrome go undetected. Family members are also left vulnerable to cancer risk, unaware they may have the condition. Dr Neil Ryan, from the University of Edinburgh, who leads the UK audit and research collaborative in obstetrics and gynaecology, said: 'Despite clear guidance and excellent rates of tumour testing, too many women with Lynch syndrome are still being missed because they're not referred for definitive blood testing in a timely way. 'This not only denies them the chance to reduce their future cancer risk but also prevents their relatives from being tested and protected. 'Tumour testing is only cost-effective if it leads to diagnosis — we urgently need to make mainstream testing truly mainstream.'
