Matalan recalls cushions due to fire risk

Matalan has recalled a range of cushions following the discovery that they may prevent a fire risk.

The homeware retailer says that the cushions, which come a variety of colours, have a filling which may pose a flammability risk when subjected to prolonged exposure to an ignition source.
