Gas Safety Week 2026: Take No Chances
Bury Housing Services is supporting Gas Safety Week 2026 and urges our tenants to Take No Chances with gas safety.
Gas Safety Week takes place from 14th–20th September 2026, bringing together organisations, businesses, community groups and Gas Safe registered engineers across the UK to help keep the nation gas safe.
The theme for Gas Safety Week 2026 is Take No Chances. It is a simple but important reminder that if something does not feel right, it should not be ignored. If an appliance needs checking, do not put it off. And if gas work needs doing, always use someone who is Gas Safe registered and qualified for the type of work needed.
Taking the right action can help protect people from serious risks including gas leaks, fires, explosions and carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Carbon monoxide is often called the ‘silent killer’ because it cannot be seen, smelt or tasted.
We’d like to remind all Bury Housing Services tenants that we are required by law to conduct annual gas safety checks on all gas appliances. These checks allow us to identify potential unsafe gas appliances can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, fires, and even explosions. For you and your family’s safety, it’s important to allow us access for these inspections and report any issues with your gas appliances immediately.
If you need to report an issue with a gas appliance, Take No Chances and call 0161 686 8000 or contact us here as soon as possible.
