Story
On the 12th July this year I will be flying out to Greece for a week to volunteer with a Charity called Dentaid, providing emergency dental treatment in refugee camps around Thessaloniki.
This is something I have always wanted to do as I believe everyone should have access to basic health care. The people we will be treating have fled from war torn countries seeking help and refuge in what countries they can, I will never be able to comprehend what they have been through but believe that they should be given the chance to be free from pain and suffering. In this country we take the NHS for granted, and many people can relate to how awful dental pain can be. I want to be involved in relieving them of this pain and teaching them basic oral health to improve their general health and wellbeing.
To raise the funds to go on this trip I will be asking everyone and anyone to donate as much or as little to help me achieve my dream of providing aid work in refugee camps.
I will be doing a Skydive at Old Sarum in Salisbury!
I will also be doing a joint fund raiser with my father - we plan to face our most stupid irrational phobias on the same day and get full video coverage of the sweat and tears that their will inevitably be.
My phobia: Dogs.
The more they look like a wolf the worse it is. I have had this fear for a very long time and it can affect me in day to day life. My plan is to hit the highest point of my fear and have to sit down on the floor in the company of an alsation....I might even stroke it....!🙈
My dad's phobia: Crabs and Lobsters.
Not sure how to justify this phobia for him because it's pretty weird but let's just say he starts sweating at the thought of picking one up and seeing all the legs move! 😂 So he will be doing just that.
I will try to post photo updates on to here but all will be videoed and viewable on Facebook. Dates to be confirmed.
