Thank you for visiting my page, as most of you may know that we are working in Gambia as part of our ongoing commitment to the long-term development to improve the infrastructure of The Gambian Oral Health Service. We will be travelling with the Humanity First  UK on the 12th of Nov 2019. Humanity First identified key areas of interest in oral health. At this point the medical system is restricted to basic services and forces patients to travel to neighbouring countries for essential treatment.

We have also renovated the polyclinic, children surgical ward and the dental laboratory. 

Our objectives and key areas of interest are surgical skills, oral surgery, oral health and prevention. At this point the system is restricted to basic services and forces patients to travel to neighbouring countries for essential treatment.

We have with us 4 dentists, 2 dental therapists, 3 dental nurses, an engineer and a dental technician to join us on the dental side. We will be aiming to work and teach with current guidelines and protocols in oral surgery, restorative dentistry, technology and preventive dental care. We also plan to restructure and equip their current dental facilities for the new dental school. We have already installed 3 dental chars and one OPG machine with your help. I can assure you that every penny goes where its needed most. 

While HF recognises the scale of the task to bring some of these changes we remain ready to assist through expertise and wider support in assisting The Gambian people meet their aspirations for themselves and Africa.


This mammoth task of saving lives requires funding which can only be generated with your donations.

Donations can be accepted in materials and supplies as well, please email asif.hamid@uk.humanityfirst.org for specifics.
