A New Zealand toddler died from a blind cord in 2023, renewing calls for mandatory safety laws absent despite proven global success.
Three-year-old Tilly Cambie died in January 2023 from accidental strangulation by a corded blind in her New Zealand home, prompting renewed calls for mandatory safety regulations.
The coroner and her mother, Courtney Cambie, stressed that existing public education efforts are insufficient, citing six child deaths from blind cords between 2009 and 2019 and two more since a 2023 government consultation.
Despite evidence from countries like Australia and the U.S. showing regulations reduce fatalities, New Zealand has not enacted binding standards, leaving families vulnerable to preventable tragedies.
