Hi I was wondering as I can not find the information on the website how far away does a newborn bassinet need to be from a central heating vent? Regards Simone

Are you relating this to risk of overheating baby? I am not aware of any information about distance baby sleep environment should be away from heating vents.
Red Nose does not recommend heating or cooling needs to be left on overnight, & has the following information about room temperature.
It is not necessary to monitor the room temperature or to leave the heating or cooling on all night, as long as the baby is dressed appropriately for the room temperature.
Dress baby as you would dress yourself – comfortably warm, not hot or cold.
