1 min read Volunteering
Dental charity Dentaid has celebrated its moved to new premises near Southampton with an open day for its friends and supporters.

Guests including Chief Dental Officer Sara Hurley, councillors, business leaders and dental professionals gathered at the charity’s new headquarters to meet staff and trustees on Friday, June 7.

Among the guests was Dentaid’s earliest supporter Vic Jackopson, who helped found the charity after a British dentist sent a reconditioned dental clinic to a Ukrainian prison in 1996. Dentaid trustee Fiona Ellwood also attended, the day before the announcement of her British Empire Medal for Services to Dentistry in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List.

Dentaid’s former premises were crumbling temporary offices and a separate warehouse on a remote site in Landford, Wiltshire which was inaccessible by public transport and no longer fit for purpose.
