Story

Thank you to everyone who donated - this was the story - we will udpate it as the situation unfolds:-

Dentaid desperately needs your help!

One of our mobile units was severely damaged by a third party in January 2023.

Repairs were approved by the third party’s insurers in April.

The mobile dental unit has been repaired and is sitting in the garage awaiting release.

We (and our insurers) have been chasing the third party insurers to settle the invoice since the works were completed on 1 August. Each time they have offered excuses of time to get it signed off / approved.

Today – 6 September - they informed us that upon investigation they have decided that they will no longer process the claim as it is not covered under the insurance they hold for the third party.

We are starting the legal process to try and sort this out.

BUT we urgently need this vehicle back on the road as we have a full programme of clinics helping some of the most vulnerable in our society.

We urgently need to find £10,000 so that we can pay the garage who will then release the vehicle –

ANYTHING you can donate would be very much appreciated.

12 September 2023 - We Made it!!!! THANK YOU
