Aim: Keep dental care in St Pauls and build community-led healthcare that delivers clinical dental care and addresses health inequalities.
Our local dentist is an essential local resource, serving many people who do not have the means to access a dentist elsewhere. In recent years we have lost a post office, a doctor’s surgery, a pharmacy, a school and a bus route. No more. We aren’t going to lose this dentist.
Despite living in one of the most deprived neighbourhoods in the country, we recently won a national award for our community organizing during the pandemic and we have come together as an Action Group to ensure NHS dental services will be delivered at this site and to bring residents together to develop community-led healthcare.
So far we have successfully campaigned to save the building and it’s equipment for 1 year! And to engage in dialogue with regional authorities to find solutions. This is a significant win!
We are a campaign run by local community residents and supported by allies and co-conspirators from across Bristol and the country. We would love you to support us to work together to find ways to keep the site as a dental practice able to offer NHS dental care and tackle underlying health inequalities.
Your money will all go towards maintaining the momentum of the campaign over the next 3 months, ensuring its success, including the costs of arts materials, flyers, posters, stickers, website, events, signage, t-shirts and more.
