Open petition: Make carbon monoxide alarms mandatory in all holiday accommodation

Created by Devon Andrews
Closes on

We ask the UK Government to introduce legislation requiring all holiday accommodation, including short-term lets and rentals, to install and maintain working carbon monoxide alarms, with mandatory regular safety checks and proper enforcement.

This petition is written by a mother whose heart has been broken forever. My daughter and her boyfriend died from carbon monoxide poisoning whilst on holiday in Bridlington. Carbon monoxide is a silent, preventable killer. No family should go away and not come home. Stronger laws are needed to ensure all holiday accommodation has working carbon monoxide alarms to prevent further devastating loss.
