Herefordshire LINk are working with Hampton Dene Primary School to help raise awareness of the importance of Dental Care.

A Dental Hygiene week will take place at Hampton Dene Primary School in December. Pupils will be involved in a number of activities including writing stories about their experiences of visits to the dentist, preparing a survey to question their families and friends on access to dental care and reporting on findings to share with the LINk.

Penny Minchin of Oasis Dental Care, Pool Farm Dentist will give a presentation on how to care for your teeth and competitions will be run for school pupils during this week.

If your school would be interested in taking part in a similar project, please contact Sarah Epps at Herefordshire LINk on 01432 373604 or by email: s.epps@carersfederation.co.uk
