2016 APPCOG has had two meetings that we know of.
April – CO in the domestic environment
Sadly we could not show our one minute film (https://www.co-gassafety.co.uk/one-survivors-story/) at this meeting because there wasn’t time.
May – CO abroad.
Mark Dingley who lost his daughter Francesca gave an excellent speech and asked why there weren’t prime time TV warnings to raise awareness of CO and warn people to take CO alarms abroad.

However, this must be on certain conditions e.g. that we are still free to publish matters that are in the public domain. This change is due to the fact that we have become convinced of the need to make sure such data is not controlled by industry or indeed anyone, because the truth needs the fresh air of publicity. We have had our data inspected again by Dr Craggs, independent statistician in summer 2016. We are seeking a university to work with to enhance the reputation of our data but to do this we probably need more funding to pay a university to employ a PhD student to work on the data.
