A BEDSIDE crib which has been linked to a death of a baby last year has been found on sale in Sussex.

The Bednest crib was spotted in a charity shop in East Grinstead without essential safety modifications.

Last year the West Sussex coroner found the crib was linked to the death of a seven-week-old baby Grace Joy Roseman.

The baby was found with her neck resting on the partially lowered crib side.

The provisional cause of death was given as asphyxia.

The full inquest is due later in the year.

Following the death last year, Bednest Ltd notified its known customers of the availability of a modification kit that prevents the sides from being partially lowered to remove any possibility of a risk of asphyxiation.

The company maintain the product was not unsafe but issued the modification as a precaution.

Residents are asked if they see any second-hand Bednest cribs to call Citizens Advice Consumer Service on 03454 040506 or visit westsussex.gov.uk/tsreport.
