I’m grateful for the people in my life who provide timely reminders of what’s important. A couple of years ago I started working with someone in Tanzania who was keen to support Bridge2Aid. He has lived and worked in the country for many years, is hugely respected, and in terms of philanthropy and working with […]
Friday 5th June sees our second annual ‘Smile in Pink’ day in aid of Bridge2Aid take place. Over 40 practices around the country, plus the whole of the Oasis Dental Care network will dress up in pink for the day, and raise as much money as they can to support Bridge2Aid! It has been […]
As the countdown for my return to the UK continues, it’s been a time for a lot of reflection. I guess it’s inevitable that once the end of your time gets closer that you begin to not only reminisce but also reflect on how much of an impact you’ve really been able to have. For […]
We are very excited about extending DVP to a no fewer than three new regions in the next 3 months. In June we will be in Mororgoro and Tanga, and in July will move to the very far south east of Tanzania to Lindi Region. The Lindi project has been made possible by an introduction […]
