This began as a personal challenge for Christina, walking 20 miles a day over the course of National Smile Month. She then wanted to expand on the idea and “500 miles for 500 smiles” was born. Christina feels passionately about improving the oral health and well-being of her community, widening the access of care for everyone. For more info visit the offcial page: 500miles4smiles!

Your brilliant fundraising efforts and generous donations will be shared between two fantastic charities that really do make a difference in addressing the inequalities in oral health. Both the British Dental Health Foundation and Heart Your Smile do wonderful work providing materials and resources to communities all over the UK.

Heart your Smile is a registered charity that is dedicated to changing the public’s perception of dentistry. We want to increase the public’s awareness of the importance of good oral hygiene, reduce dental anxiety and get more people visiting their local dental practice.
