A mechanism for controlling adjustment of a blind or the like, the mechanism including, a fixable member which in use is fixed in position relative to the blind, a rotatable member located proximate the fixable member being rotatable relative to the fixable member about an axis of rotation to adjust the blind, an elongate member a proximal end of which is located proximate the rotatable member, the elongate member having a longitudinal axis that intersects the axis of rotation, and a continuous pull element which interacts with the rotatable member, the pull element is movable relative to the fixable member to rotate the rotatable member, the pull element is arranged relative to the elongate member extending from the rotatable member towards a distal end of the elongate member and back towards the rotatable member so as to limit movement of the pull element in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the elongate member.
