Default Dry Lining & Curtains

Hi. Just a quick question about installing curtains into plasterboard.

Our nan has just moved into a new disabled flat and the whole place is dry
lined (hollow walls).

She has two 3.6m wide windows which need curtains and poles / tracks.

Also just to complicate things she would prefer one of the long windows to
have venetian blinds.

I've been to B&Q and checked out the fixings but my question would be how
strong is the actual dry lining itself.

I'm sure I could use the correct fixings to keep the non lined curtains held
up, but what worries me is if the actual plasterboard itself falls down.
