I would be grateful for any guidance regarding the scenario below: Client is a charity leasing two units out of several. Gas charges are apportioned between all tenants. To date the Landlord has never provided any bills/demands for the Gas despite repeated written requests by the Charity. We have been making provisions for these in our accounts. Is there any time limit after which these charges could not be recovered from the charity? Thanks

Not void as such, but statute of limitations give 6 years before its statute barred. 6 years from the date last acknowledged as owed, not incurred that is.
But...
... for amounts payable under a lease, the 6 years commences from the time that the amount becomes due. You need to read the lease.
