Dental Community Assemble (Oh and 2 marathons to run)

Hi, I'm running not one marathon, but two (gulp) Brighton and London both in April 2 weeks apart. Why, well please read below this paragraph. How can we raise so much money........well, the dental community have rallied though to support me and given me products or spaces on courses to help incentivise you to make a donation to Dentaid. My dream would be to engage 1000 people to donate £5. But lets see, and of course, higher and lower donations are very welcome......

Dentaid is a remarkable UK-based charity that delivers free dental care and oral health advice to people who need it most: those experiencing homelessness, survivors of abuse, families in poverty, vulnerable women, refugees, cancer patients, people recovering from addiction, and others facing health inequalities. Their mobile dental units travel the country, where volunteer dental professionals provide essential treatments—relieving pain from infections, performing fillings and extractions, and restoring dignity through healthier smiles. For many, this is the first time in years they’ve accessed dental care, breaking cycles of suffering and rebuilding confidence.

The dental industry has shown its generous heart by rallying behind this cause. Leading companies have already donated fantastic prizes for a special prize draw to help raise vital funds:

• NSK• GC - Acteon• Aura Infection Control• Aspire Dental Academy• Crown Dental Burs• Durr• EMS• SDI• Septodont• W&H

…and more donations are on the way!

These high-quality products and educational opportunities—ranging from cutting-edge equipment to burs, infection control solutions, and training—will make incredible rewards for supporters.

The prize draw will take place on 1 May 2026, giving everyone a chance to win while directly supporting Dentaid’s life-changing work.

Whether you’re a dentist, therapist, dental nurse, hygienist, technician, student, or part of any corner of our community, your support means everything. By donating, you’re helping fund more outreach clinics, more volunteer hours, and more smiles restored for those who have nowhere else to turn.

If you’d like to sponsor my runs, enter the prize draw, or simply cheer me on, every contribution—no matter the size—will help Dentaid reach more people in need. Together, the dental community can power this charity to deliver even more care where it’s desperately needed.

Thank you for your kindness and solidarity. Let’s run (and give) for those who can’t.

Proud to run for Dentaid. 💙🦷
