Carbon Monoxide
Following several fatalities caused by carbon monoxide poisoning, Gas Safe and other groups are promoting an all fuels BBQ safety campaign. The campaign advises people on how to stay safe using BBQs (charcoal and gas) and camping equipment, and remind them to only use these appliances in open spaces with a good supply of fresh air.
