Posted by Sinks on 27th Jun 2017
Finding a kitchen sink that is child friendly is likely to be a key consideration for any family with little ones.But the presence of a kitchen mixer tap on an Astracast sink is not the only precaution that parents can take.Window blind cords pose a significant risk to children, who have been known to strangle themselves when unsupervised.Homeowners who have recently renovated their kitchen and added blinds to windows may want to take advantage of the free blind safety devices being given away by as part of Child Safety Week.Taking place between June 20th and 26th, Apollo Blinds Make Blinds Child Safe campaign will be giving away the devices throughout its 70 stores across the UK and Ireland.Child burns caused by scaldings are also a preventable hazard around the home.Investing in a mixer tap may help to reduce the risk of children suffering burns from hot water in the kitchen, perhaps while preparing food or washing their hands before a meal.
