What the petition asks
Make it illegal for cot bumpers to be sold or used
Cot bumpers are EXTREMELY dangerous. They increase the risk of cot death. Suffocation. Strangling. Re-breathing in air. Chocking. The list goes on. Yet many people continue to use them and risk their babies lives daily.
These should be banned and made illegal to use. As that would then save many babies lives.
