CORGI is recognised as the UK's gas safety watchdog. 9 out of 10 people know the CORGI name and that it stands for safety and professionalism.
As CORGI moves forward its goal is to make more people safer in their home and at work when they use different types of trades people.
In order to do this they keep a register of professionals who can carry out work safely and competently in your home. You must always ask to see the CORGI ID card of anyone who comes into your home. This card tells you clearly what types of work the person is able to carry out for you.
CORGI believes in PREVENTION - "one death from carbon monoxide is one death too many". they are working hard to improve standards in industry and help train and educate the trades people that come into your home to improve safety. they also carry out numerous consumer safety campaigns telling the public to:
Always use registered installers
Always check the ID card
Install an audible, battery operated carbon monoxide alarm
Although there are many DIY tasks you can safely perform at home, unless you are a trained professional, working with gas appliances is not one of them. CORGI's Spring Campaign is focused on letting DIY dynamos know the dangers of DIY'ing with gas.
According to statistics released by safety organisation the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), over 200,000 people are injured whilst undertaking some form of DIY project in their home each year. With figures like this it's not surprising that a new craze is on the increase; GSI or "Get Someone In".
