Watch Those Windows!!

Hi Everyone,

Well summer is here (not) and most of England seems to be underwater. I had to cancel a meeting in Cheltenham last weekend because I couldn't get in or out of the town. If anyone still doubts that climate change is happening it's time to wake up.............IT'S JULY FOR GODS SAKE!!!!

Anyway, I received this from some colleagues the other day, and although at present we aren't really enjoying the weather necessary to throw open all the windows, it is a good point, a good product, and a good price. (And who knows when the weather will change).

Window Watch

As the humidity and temperature rises during the summer months, keeping an eye on adventurous young children is very important as they can easily climb out of open windows. Therefore, parents, grandparents and nannies should consider some extra safety measures when caring for their little ones this season.

The windows in your home can prove a real hazard when they’re left open to allow the fresh air to circulate. Your children could be in danger of falling if a window is open too far, and if they’re a bit curious, they may push a slightly ajar window open even further.

Particular attention needs to be paid if you live in a flat or apartment as an accident could be fatal if your child were to fall from a great height.

Clippasafe’s child safety expert, Roger Cheetham commented: “Even though we’re only promised the odd spot of sunshine this summer, it’s far better to be prepared and not throw caution to the wind, just in case we’re due any warm days or sudden heat waves!”

A window lock or blocker can be easily fitted to restrict the opening and prevent children from opening the window further. Clippasafe’s Window Lock is priced at £1.99 and the Sliding Window & Door Blocker is priced at £2.49.

Next week there will be more postnatal exercise info.

That's a promise!

Healthy Regards
