No problem! Well, not as long as you observe a few basic precautions – some of the cylinders, for example, are quite heavy – and, crucially, allow plenty of time to get the job done. It can take a lot longer than you think!

Helium is an inert gas (that is, it will neither explode nor cause fires) which is perfectly safe provided you use it according to the instructions and do not inhale it.

We can supply party packs which contain all the ingredients for success – a cylinder of helium complete with easy to use valve, best quality latex balloons and tying ribbon. These packs come in varying sizes to suit your requirements and appropriately sized weights can be purchased separately.

Alternatively, if you prefer to source the balloons etc yourself, we can supply you simply with the gas. The on loan cylinders come in varying sizes (again, we need a £100 deposit, fully refundable when the cylinder and valve are returned)
