1. A package comprising: a container having an open end and a closed end, and comprising a pair of sidewalls, at least one facing panel connecting the sidewalls and an end wall; anda slider for holding a product, the slider being slidably mounted within the container and comprising at least one sidewall and at least one facing panel;wherein the package comprises a releasable locking feature at a side of the package, the releasable locking feature comprising a pair of locking edges, one associated with a sidewall of each of the slider and container respectively, and a release area for releasing a locking abutment between the locking edges, the release area being provided in the sidewall of the container having the locking edge, wherein the locking edge of the slider comprises two or more plies of a material used to provide the slider;wherein the locking edges cooperate to prevent movement of the slider out of the open end of the container for permitting access to the product until a user manually applies pressure to the release area to deform the release area and thereby deflect the locking edge of the slider out of abutment with the locking edge of the container to permit the slider to slide past the locking edge of the container. 2. The package of claim 1 wherein the slider is made from a blank of foldable sheet material, and the locking edge of the slider is provided by two or more plies of the sheet material, and preferably wherein the locking edge of the slider is provided by only two plies of the sheet material. 3. The package of claim 1 wherein the locking edge of the slider is provided by folding a material of the slider to provide the two or more plies thereof. 4. The package of claim 1 wherein the sidewall of the slider comprises a first panel and a second panel connected thereto along a foldline, and which second panel is folded back over the first panel to provide a multi-ply sidewall terminating in the locking edge. 5. The package of claim 1 wherein the slider is slidably mounted with respect to the container to enable the slider to be moved between a first position relative to the container, in which the slider is located fully within the container for preventing access to a product held by the slider, and a second position relative to the container in which at least a portion of the slider extends out of the open end of the container for permitting access to the product, wherein releasable locking feature selectively prevents movement of the slider relative to the container from the first position to the second position. 6. The package of claim 1 wherein the sidewall of the slider having the locking edge terminates in the locking edge. 7. The package of claim 1 wherein the slider further comprises an end wall, the or each sidewall of the slider terminating at a position spaced from the end wall of the slider, and at least one flap is connected to a respective one of the side edges of the end wall along a foldline, the or each said flap being folded so as to extend toward the end of the sidewall of the slider on its respective side of the slider over at least a portion of the distance between the end wall of the slider and the end of the sidewall. 8. The package of claim 1 wherein the release area is defined between a pair of cutlines. 9. The package of claim 1 wherein the package comprises a retaining feature for preventing complete separation of the slider from the container. 10. The package of claim 1 wherein the slider comprises a pair of sidewalls connected by the at least one facing panel. 11. The package of claim 1 wherein the package comprises means for biasing the locking edge of the slider into engagement with the locking edge of the container. 12. The package of claim 11 wherein the biasing means comprises a projection, such as a lug. 13. The package of claim 12 wherein the projection is a two ply projection. 14. The package of claim 1 wherein the slider is configured to hold a product in the form of a blister pack. 15. The package of claim 14 wherein the package further comprises a carrier for the blister pack, and a panel of the carrier is connected to the slider. 16. The package of claim 15 wherein the panel of the carrier is connected to the slider at an end opposite to an end having a retaining flap for preventing complete separation of the slider and the container. 17. The package of claim 15 wherein a panel of the blister pack carrier is connected to an end wall of the slider along a foldline at a first edge of the end wall, the end wall of the slider being connected to a facing panel of the slider along a foldline at an opposed second edge of the end wall, and wherein the first and second edges of the end wall are connected by side edges of the end wall. 18. The package of claim 15 wherein the carrier comprises a first panel having an opening for movably receiving a blister of said blister pack and a second panel having one or more dispensing openings aligned with said first panel opening, the first panel and the second panel slidably receiving the blister pack therebetween; and a blocking member selectively moveable between a blocking position and a dispensing position, said blocking member in its blocking position preventing movement of said blister in said first panel opening into alignment with said dispensing opening, thereby preventing dispensing of the blister's contents through the dispensing opening, and in said dispensing position permitting said blister to be moved into alignment with said dispensing opening for dispensing the blister's contents. 19. The package of claim 15 wherein the package comprises means for biasing the locking edge of the slider into engagement with the locking edge of the container, wherein the biasing means comprises a projection, such as a lug, and wherein the projection projects from a side edge of the blister pack carrier. 20. The package of claim 1 wherein the container and/or slider are each made of a foldable sheet material.
