Substantial donation

As was reported on Sky by Neil Shepherd, father of Christi and Bobby, the children who died of CO in 2006 in Corfu, there were substantial donations made to several charities including independent registered charity CO-Gas Safety.
CO-Gas Safety is extremely grateful for this valuable donation to assist the charity to continue its work of preventing deaths and injuries from unintentional CO poisoning.
However, the amount of the donation although extremely welcome is not life changing for the charity, which will continue to do its work in a similar way. CO-Gas Safety still has no assured, continuous funding to collect, collate and publish data and provide victim support which it has done since 1995. Therefore all the work, apart from a small amount of paid work by our database officer, will still be done by volunteers. The charity’s directors are still considering the best use for these funds but the initial decision is to simply continue to do what the charity has always done.

How victims of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning can find information to help them

I’ve heard that nearly 50,000 people are searching for the term Carbon Monoxide Poisoning every month. This came from Google so is all over the world. However, CO-Gas Safety doesn’t come up when you type Carbon Monoxide Poisoning in to Google. The trick apparently is to keep repeating Carbon Monoxide Poisoning on the website so please forgive me for repeating this on different parts of our website! CO victim Sue Westwood-Ruttledge kindly told me about this and another victim told me she had taken ages finding our website because it didn’t come up under carbon monoxide poisoning so I’m trying to add lots of references to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Gas Safe Register’s Gas Safety Week 14th to 20th September 2015

We’ve pledged the support of CO-Gas Safety to Gas Safety Week.

We would like support for our call for prime time TV warnings of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning from all fuels, (gas to wood), all appliances (boilers to barbecues) and all types of accommodation (bungalows to boats).

If you agree please write to Stephanie office@co-gassafety.co.uk Thank you.
