Do you have a prepay meter? Check it
If you can see the sparks then there is a gas related problem which will need a competent gas registered engineer.
The only thing you can do is to confirm that the gas supply is on for example than a gas hob is working.

It may well only be a minor problem like a blocked pilot burner or mispositioned ignition electrode.
But It could also be a failed gas valve. These sometimes fail as a result of water leaking from the AAV on that model.
