I've been sent a link to a leaflet about the dangers of blinds and cords in the home.

That's brilliant, luckily I don't have any blinds or cords but will be great for anyone that does.

There was a lot of information about this on the NCMA website too :D

Just had my inspection and this is the one thing the inspector double checked in every room. I have them tied up in a knot at the very top and this is acceptable. Not something I would have or did do before getting ready for inspection. Makes you think doesn't it!
