Palestine 2016 Dental Aid Project Begins

Today the dental team are travelling from around the United Kingdom to meet at Manchester airport and they will fly together to Tel Aviv. The team this year includes a dental nurse, a dental therapist and a dentist currently in their vocational training year. We also have a specialist registrar in paediatric called Helen Rogers, joining us this year. Helen has been able to secure us a great deal of free dental stock such as stainless steel crowns that we can use to provide dental treatment.

On arrival in Tel Aviv there was a a wait for several hours for a few of the team members whilst the Israeli security forces carried out security checks but thankfully everyone was eventually issued a travel visa.

Looking forward to a few days of sightseeing before getting stuck into work.
