Which? Get Answers podcast: the dos and don'ts when buying for children

We explain the products you should avoid to keep your kids safe

Since we set up shop in a garage in East London way back in the 1960s, Which? has helped see in some important changes to the way we regulate products, especially when it comes to the safety of babies and children.

Today we hear more about our work, share our advice for what to look out for when buying for the little people in your life, and explain how to avoid bringing dangerous products into your home.

This episode is hosted by Harry Kind and Grace Forell, alongside Which? senior editor Alison Potter and Which? principal scientific advisor Kamisha Darroux.
