A manufacturer has urged people to stop using its beds "immediately" after the death of a baby.

PlayTime Beds warned that several of its products, including "children's cots, beds, twin beds", may pose risks to children including "asphyxiation or strangulation, falling, entrapment or crushing".

The Sheffield-based company confirmed it had stopped trading as police revealed they were "investigating the sudden death of a seven-month-old baby who died on 3 November 2016 at a property in Melrosegate, York".

North Yorkshire Police added that they were "running a joint investigation with South Yorkshire Trading Standards" and that "a 35-year-old man has been interviewed under caution and is assisting police with their enquiries".

In a statement on its website, PlayTime Beds said the warning applied to "bespoke products made and supplied nationally since approximately 2011".

Regarding advice to customers, it said: "Craig Williams and Playtime Beds Ltd would strongly advise that until such time that they are able to determine which bed and extras you purchased, you stop using the bed immediately either for sleep or play, and ensure that children in particular do not climb, sleep in it or play in or on it."

The company said it had "currently ceased trading" and was "working with Sheffield City Council's Trading Standards Department".

Anyone who is concerned is asked to call the Citizens Advice Bureau on 03454 040506.
