Keeping safe at home

Some household items can be safety hazards, especially for young children.

Furniture and television stability

Children have been seriously injured or killed from furniture falling on them. Furniture and televisions can fall if a child climbs or pulls on it.

Blind and curtain cord safety

Looped cords and chains from blinds and curtains are a serious safety risk for children. Sadly children have died from strangulation by a loose cord.
