Mould on Kitchen Window Blind

I have a window above the kitchen sink, and it doesn't seem to matter what I have there...curtains or roller blinds, they always end up getting mould/damp stains on them that won't wash out. Any ideas as to what I could use on this window???

    Try a cafe style curtain that leaves the bottom of the window curtainless. It's probably splashing water and general steam getting on them and turning mouldy. A little more ventilation in the kitchen may help too.

    I have PVC roller blinds in the bathroom. Easy to give them a quick wipe. As the kitchen is another high condensation area I'm sure they'd be ok.

    Metal Venetians. They'll still get grubby, but you can soak them in the bath in biological powder for a couple of hours. Then give each blade a little scrub with a brush, and rinse off with the shower.

    these sound good...do you mind me asking where you bought them from?

    I bought them online from swift blinds, they are based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. Sorry but I've no idea how to do a link.
