I’m sure you’re well aware of the terrible situation that many Ukrainians find themselves in. We would like to ask for your support.

One of our dentists, Andrew Dixon, and his wife Jayne along with Michael who is Amanda’s husband, plan to drive a van over to Poland, full (hopefully!) of essential supplies donated by our staff and patients to give to the Ukrainians in refuge there.

The trip should take 72 hours and is planned for the end of this month. We are still in the planning stage, if you think you may be able to help with any aspect, please get in touch with our patient coordinator julie.mwdp@gmail.com

We are hoping to concentrate on smaller items initially so that we don’t fill up quickly on bulky items.

If you could spare any of the following, I’m sure it would be massively appreciated;

nappies,

sanitary products,

hair brushes, toiletries,

first aid kits,

paracetamol and ibuprofen,

batteries, flashlights and candles,

long-lasting dry food supplies like pasta and rice, canned meat or fish (with ring pull), coffee, tea

pet food,

thermal hats and gloves.

Feel free to pop in to the practice any time to drop off any donation.

Thank you so much in advance

Whickham Dental Practice Team
