Dental charity celebrates national Volunteer’s Week

1 min read Volunteering
In honour of Volunteers’ Week (2 June to 8 June, 2025), Dentaid the Dental Charity is celebrating all the people who give up their time to help the charity change lives through dental care.

Established in 1984, Volunteers' Week provides an opportunity to thank volunteers for their time, passion and skills. The campaign highlights the diversity and unity of volunteer work across the UK.

Dentaid has said it couldn’t do its work without the support of hundreds of amazing dental nurses, dentists, industry professionals and oral health educators. Since the start of 2025, over 350 volunteers have helped the charity deliver 185 charity dental clinics across the UK, working on their mobile dental units to bring care to those who need it most.

Beyond the clinics, many volunteers visit schools to deliver BrightBites oral health presentations or lend a hand in Dentaid’s Totton warehouse refurbishing donated equipment and helping build portable dental chairs to send overseas.
