Following reports of a house explosion on Sunday 14 April in Worksop, Nottinghamshire – which tragically resulted in the death of one man and the collapse of a property – we at CORGI Technical Services wish to extend our deepest sympathies to everyone affected by this devastating incident.
At this early stage, the exact cause of the explosion has not been confirmed. However, investigations are underway by the relevant authorities, including Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service and Nottinghamshire Police.
While we await the outcome of those investigations, this incident is a stark and sobering reminder of the importance of gas safety. Ensuring that all gas appliances, systems and pipework are properly installed, regularly maintained, and checked by qualified Gas Safe registered engineers is critical to safeguarding lives and property.
We will continue to monitor developments as more information becomes available and support the wider safety and compliance community in promoting safe practices across the sector.
