Converting from gas to electric centre heating, yay or nay?
No, but then I probably wouldn't insulate under the floor in that type of building, either.
If you take the existing hot water heating system out, it might then become more costly to fit an air source later. And you'll be relying on electric to heat your water which is a bit of a ball ache.
I'd leave it, and in five years revisit and see if there was mileage in getting an airsource put in alongside other measures (like more insulation but designed to work with / for the air source).

My girlfriend seemed to be dead against electric, thinking they’re ineffective and said it will decrease the house value.
I’m aware it’s not 100% green depending on power station, it be nice to have a concrete plan as we are to rip the floorboard out of our 2 bed ground floor late Victorian terrace to insulate it, so might as well look into heating while we’re at it and decommissioned the old gas system.
