THE Northern Echo has launched a campaign urging the Government to change a law that allows less stringent fire safety standards on children's pyjamas.
It has been launched in conjunction with the family of two-year-old Daniel Mitchard-Harrison, who suffered horrific burns when his pyjama shorts caught fire at his home last month.
