Mending pull chord in window blind

Can you repair/replace a snapped plastic beaded pull mechanism in a window blind? It's snapped a few inches away from the cog wheel around which it operates. We don't want to replace the whole blind as it covers the width of four window panes and would be expensive.

Hi, you can change the position of the break by moving the cord round. You can repair the beading and put the mended part near the bottom. You can also get small plastic clips which clip the cord together. Again, you will need to position this away from the cog.0

Many thanks. Can you suggest which sort of shops would sell the clips for rejoining the pull-chord beading together again?0

I'm not sure where you'd get it from unless you have any blind shops in your area?
It may work out cheaper to replace the cord rather than repair or take one from an old blind?0
