Magnet Safety
In 2025, a study found that around 300 UK youngsters were admitted to A&E in a single year after swallowing magnets. One in 10 required life-saving operations.
A safety alert was issued by the Office of Product Safety and Standards in 2021 warning families about small, strong magnets.
Yet many families are still unaware of the dangers.
