Gas Safety Week serves as a reminder for the public to keep themselves gas safe, with the theme this year being ‘Checking – Every Check Counts’, emphasising the importance of, amongst other things, regular gas safety checks.

As long-standing supporters of Gas Safety Week, we’re proud to collaborate with local schools and other stakeholders to promote gas safety and safeguard our communities.”
