To: The Secretary of State for Health
I am backing Tom's campaign to tackle the lack of NHS dental places available to residents.
Tom's 2007 Health Survey revealed that 71% of constituents have struggled to find an NHS dentist in the area. Nationally the picture is much the same with 75% of people in the same boat.
The 'Desperate For Dentists' campaign aims to promote:
1) Free checkups
2) Consultation with patients and dentists
3) More preventative treatment
4) Individual Dental Plans tailored to the needs of patients
Even if you've already signed this petition, you can use the printable petition sheet to collect more signatures from your friends and neighbours.
You could go door to door on your street or pass the sheet around at a local event. Good places to leave a few copies include shops, pubs, libraries, and post offices - but don't forget to collect them and send them back to us.
When complete, please return (as soon as possible) to: Tom Brake, Kennedy House, 5 Nightingale Road, Carshalton, Surrey SM5 2DN.
