With the UK heatwave sending us all scrambling for fans, air con units and anything remotely chilly, it's no surprise that even a blanket promising to cool you down is drawing serious attention. But can it really make a difference? That's the claim behind the Luxear Cooling Blanket – a throw designed with Arc-Chill 3.0 tech and jade nanoparticle fibres, offering a cold-to-the-touch sensation that lasts through the night. It's earned a 4.3-star rating from over 4,800 reviews, and is currently marked as an Amazon's Choice product for 'cooling.' Here's what real UK reviewers are saying. You can buy the Luxear Cooling Blanket on Amazon from £27. Click here to see the range of sizes. 'Didn't expect it to work – but it changed how I sleep' One reviewer, H.C., admitted they were sceptical. 'Even the lightest of my usual summer blankets were unbearable… but the cooling side of this gave instant relief.' While the intense chill doesn't last forever, they say the blanket still helps wick away body heat as you sleep – leading to some of the best rest they'd had in ages. 'I don't know how it works, but it absolutely does' S.V., who experiences hot flushes at night, called this blanket 'a game changer.' After trying cheaper versions with poor reviews, they decided to invest in this one. 'From the first night, I could feel the cold right away. I barely noticed the hot flushes. I've had solid sleep ever since.' 'Without these blankets, I wouldn't have slept this summer' Another customer, A.C., has bought five of these and scattered them around the house – even the family dog uses one. 'They feel cold and soothing. If they warm up, I just move it or flip to another side and it's cool again. At its best, it feels like being in the freezer lol.' 'It was so good, my daughter stole it' P.T. bought the blanket for themselves, but never really got a chance to enjoy it: 'My daughter claimed it immediately. The fabric is soft, cool and breathable – and the effect is noticeable as soon as you climb under it.' They've since added a second one to the basket. The Luxear blanket uses cooling fibres to create an instantly refreshing sensation—perfect for hot summer nights or calming down after a long day. | Luxear 'Didn't stay cool for me – but still a lovely blanket' L.B. wasn't quite as impressed. 'It didn't keep me as cool as I hoped,' they wrote, although they still praised the feel, the design with dual-sided fabric, and said it was generally pleasant to use. So… does it really work? The majority verdict? It won't replace air con, but for hot sleepers, those with night sweats, or anyone dreading the next warm night, this blanket seems to offer genuine relief. The Arc-Chill tech really does feel cold on the skin, and the breathable fabric helps stop heat from building up. It's also washable, lightweight, and available in multiple colours and sizes. At £27.19 (with 15% off at time of writing), it could be one of the smartest heatwave purchases you make this summer. And if your kids or pets are anything like the reviewers'… you might need to order more than one.

Wreaths Across America Executive Director Honored with Colonel Roger H.C. Donlon Patriot Award
The Kansas Chapter of the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) recognized Karen Worcester for her continuous support of veterans and their families. Col. Roger H.C. Donlon Patriot Award Two recipients of the Col. Roger H.C. Donlon Patriot Award COLUMBIA FALLS, Maine and KANSAS CITY, Kan., June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wreaths Across America (WAA) proudly announces that Karen Worcester, co-founder and executive director of the nonprofit organization, is the 2025 recipient of the Colonel Roger H.C. Donlon Patriot Award. The award was presented Saturday, June 14, by the Association of the U.S. Army's (AUSA) Greater Kansas City Chapter in recognition of Worcester's ongoing support of veterans and families of the fallen through the organization's yearlong mission to remember, honor and teach. Actor and philanthropist Gary Sinise—the inaugural recipient of the Col. Roger H.C. Donlon Patriot Award—presented the recognition during the chapter's 2025 program, marking its 26th anniversary with AUSA and the 250th birthday of the United States Army. The award honors Col. Donlon, the first American soldier of the Vietnam War and the first U.S. Army Special Forces warrior to receive the Medal of Honor. Donlon, who passed away in January, was a longtime volunteer and advocate for WAA and believed immensely in the program's mission. Past recipients of the Col. Roger Donlon Patriot Award include Gary Sinise, Morrill Worcester, Sen. Bob Dole, Art Fillmore, Donnie Edwards, Holly Petraeus and John Holt. Award-winning actor and philanthropist Joe Mantegna was also recognized with Worcester on Saturday night. 'Wreaths Across America exemplifies a steadfast commitment to honoring our nation's heroes,' said Norma Donlon, author, mother, grandmother and Col. Donlon's wife of more than 50 years. 'As we lay wreaths and speak the names of the fallen aloud, we do more than remember — we teach future generations the true meaning of freedom. Karen is the heartbeat behind this important mission, one that Roger believed deeply in, and I know he is looking down with pride.' Immediately upon creating the 501(c)(3) Wreaths Across America in 2007, the board of directors chose Karen Dow Worcester for the position of Executive Director. As a volunteer and co-founder of the nonprofit, Karen tenaciously works on ways the organization can best remember the fallen and honor those who serve. Her passion is to teach our children that our freedoms are purchased at a great cost. 'This award means a great deal to me,' said Worcester. 'Roger was a dear friend and mentor who taught me what true courage and service mean. Like me, he felt that teaching our nation's children to love their country is the most important thing we can do, and I strive every day to help ensure that happens. I am honored to accept this award on behalf of the dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly throughout the year to support this mission.' National Wreaths Across America Day will be held this year on Saturday, December 13, 2025. This free event is open to all, and the organization encourages community members to participate by volunteering locally or sponsoring a wreath for an American hero. For $17, you can help sponsor the year-long programs and resources Wreaths Across America provides.
