The project lead for the landmark document, Child Protection and the Dental Team, she has been wholly committed to ensuring that dental neglect is recognised as a potential marker for child maltreatment.

This month, in recognition of her outstanding contribution in this area, she was awarded Honorary Membership of the Council of the NSPCC.

Taken into account was her commitment to child safeguarding and 11 years membership of the charity’s Health Liaison Committee on which she has represented the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry (BSPD).

Jenny is a Consultant in Paediatric Dentistry in Sheffield, working both in the Community Dental Service and at the Charles Clifford Hospital, and, in addition to her representation with NSPCC, is also Membership Secretary for the BSPD.
