Old Flames

The purpose of the REA is to provide a forum for ex-colleagues from British Gas (HQ) to maintain contact with each other, to meet socially at visits to places of interest, at a summer social and at a Christmas Lunch; to provide an informal point of contact with the Pension Fund Trustees on behalf of our members; and to give advice and assistance where possible to members and their spouses.

Our Constitution is here.

Membership of this branch is open to all who have been employees of British Gas HQ (London) at some time in their career and are now retired.

If you are a member of another REA Branch or still employed or if you are a former British Gas HQ employee who is now a member of the Centrica or BG Group pension scheme you can become an Associate Member of the HQ Branch.

We have put together a photographic archive of the gas industry; the problem we have is that we have very few captions and need your help. Push the button below to visit the archive.

We have also put the histories of the British Gas Research Stations on line. Push the button below to see them
