We train rural health workers to provide emergency dental care
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
This year I'm representing Pure Dental Laboratory taking part in the Straumann Charity bike ride across the Pyrenees . This challenge is to ride 100 miles a day for 5 days , taking in a lot of the best the Pyrenees can offer including the Col de Tourmalet the highest climb in the Pyrenees . There is a large team riding attempting to raise money for a great charity Bridge2aid which helps provide dental care and treatment to the developing world so please dig deep . I'm looking forward to the trip and the challenge also I'm not underestimating it , so please everyone who knows me please send me some pennies to make my efforts worthwhile :-)
There is a desperate need to tackle oral disease, infection and chronic pain throughout the developing world - to enable people to work, attend school and care for families. We teach skills that mean local people are able to function free from pain, and avoid preventable infections and diseases.
