North London Gas Leak

The was a large gas leak in Enfield, North London this morning. About 120 people had to leave their homes and places of work, the town centre was closed. Badly fitted and poorly serviced gas boilers, cookers and fires can cause gas leaks, fires, explosions and carbon monoxide poisoning. If you think you have a gas leak, get some fresh air immediately, open windows and doors to let air into the room, switch off the appliance in use and turn off the gas supply at the mains.
