About True Rest
True Rest was created by Chris Tipper, a former Lancashire County Cricket Club player whose early career in professional cricket was cut short following a near-fatal road traffic accident.
At just 20 years old, Chris was part of Lancashire’s professional pathway, representing the club’s second XI during a 12-month scholarship programme. Cricket had shaped his discipline, mindset and understanding of performance.
Then everything changed.
After a serious car crash on the M42, Chris suffered significant injuries that brought his cricket ambitions to an unexpected end. His focus shifted from competing on the field to rebuilding his body, restoring his energy and learning how to recover properly.
During that recovery, one thing became clear.
Sleep was not just rest.
It was repair.
It was regeneration.
It was performance.
Chris began researching how elite athletes, entrepreneurs and high performers use sleep to support recovery, focus, physical health and daily output. The more he learned, the more he realised how overlooked sleep is by most people.
That belief became the foundation for True Rest.
The True Rest story
True Rest was devised, designed and developed by Chris to create a better sleep system for people who need more than just a comfortable mattress.
What started as a search for better recovery quickly became a mission to help everyone sleep better. Over time, this unfolded into understanding what actually matters most: real support, real recovery and comfort that adapts to how your body actually rests and repairs overnight.
The result is the True Rest sleep system.
A mattress designed to support sleep, recovery and next-day performance through carefully engineered support, layered comfort and a proper recovering environment.
Every part of the True Rest sleep system has been considered with intent, from initial support through to pressure relief, breathability and temperature regulation, so your body can properly rest.
Recover better. Sleep deeper. Perform stronger.
Why we built True Rest
For Chris, sleep became one of the most important parts of his recovery journey.
It helped him rebuild, reset and understand the role proper rest plays in physical and mental performance.
That experience inspired him to create a mattress sleep system designed for people who take their health, energy and recovery seriously.
Whether you are training hard, building a business, managing a busy lifestyle or simply trying to feel better every day, your sleep matters.
True Rest was created to help support:
Better spinal alignment
Improved pressure relief
Deeper, more restorative sleep
Temperature-regulated comfort
Enhanced recovery and next-day energy
Our mission
Our mission is simple: to help people understand that sleep is not passive.
It's where the body repairs, the mind resets and performance is rebuilt.
True Rest exists to help people sleep better, so they can recover faster, feel better and perform stronger, on and off the field.
Born from Chris Tipper's own recovery journey and shaped by his own personal experience, True Rest combines sporting discipline, recovery science and a sleep system built to perform.
True Rest. Built for recovery. Designed for performance.
Safety. Quality. Peace of mind
