Dental nurses from the Cannon Street health centre in Oldham, donned fruit costumes as part of the national Dress up for Dentaid fundraiser in July.

Patients and staff donated money that will go towards improving oral health in the developing world.

Delphine Gratrix, clinical director for community dental services said: “I'm glad the team have been so enthusiastic about dressing up for charity. It is so important to support charities such as Dentaid because large parts of the world's population have very little access to even basic dental care. This means they are more likely to suffer from infection, illness, excruciating pain and even death.”

Dentaid provides voluntary and clinical teams with equipment, education and prevention programmes.
