Posted: 13 Sep, 2024

As part of Gas Safety Week 2024, Holy Trinity College in Cookstown welcomed Evolve, the gas network operator for the west of Northern Ireland, to deliver an engaging and informative workshop aimed at raising awareness about gas safety.

The workshop, designed to educate students about the Evolve gas network, how it operates, and the importance of gas safety, covered a range of essential topics, including the dangers of poorly maintained gas appliances, the potential risks of carbon monoxide (CO), and what to do if you smell gas.

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.
