Message from School of Clinical Dentistry, University of Sheffield.

We’re pleased to share that, from Monday 13th April, Charles Clifford Dental Hospital and the School of Clinical Dentistry at the University of Sheffield will launch a FREE three-month walk-in pilot where supervised dental students will offer urgent dental care to adults aged 16+.

The service will be provided at Charles Clifford Dental Hospital in an approved and supported environment, with students receiving close support from specialists.

This initiative responds directly to the growing need for accessible urgent dental services. Reintroducing a walk-in model will improve patient access while creating valuable, supervised clinical learning opportunities for our students.

Knowing the signs of a stroke and acting quickly can save lives and reduce long-term disability. A stroke happens when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, and urgent treatment is essential.

Remember the FAST signs:
• Face drooping on one side 😟
• Arm weakness or numbness 💪⚠️
• Speech difficulty or slurred speech 🗣️❗
• Time to call 999 immediately ⏱️🚑

Recovery doesn’t stop after hospital care. Ongoing support, rehabilitation and connecting with others can make a big difference to rebuilding confidence and independence after a stroke. Peer support groups and specialist organisations can provide advice, encouragement and a sense of community for both patients and carers. 💙🧠✨

Allergies are common and can range from mild to severe. They happen when the body reacts to something harmless like pollen, food, dust or animal fur. Symptoms can vary depending on the trigger and the person.

Common allergy symptoms include:
• Sneezing, runny or blocked nose 🤧✨
• Itchy eyes, skin or throat 👀💙
• Rashes, hives or swelling 🌿⚠️
• Breathing difficulties or wheezing 🫁💨

Most allergies can be managed, but some reactions can be serious. Call 999 immediately if someone has signs of a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis), such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, feeling faint or collapsing. 🚑⚠️

Understanding triggers, knowing the difference between allergies and intolerances, and taking early action can help keep you and your family safe. 💙✨

Childhood vaccinations are one of the safest and most effective ways to protect children from serious diseases.

Vaccines help the immune system recognise and fight infections like measles, meningitis and whooping cough before they can cause harm. By keeping up to date with vaccinations, you are not only protecting your child but also helping protect vulnerable people in the wider community.

Without vaccination, children are at higher risk of serious illness, complications, hospitalisation and, in some cases, long-term health problems. Outbreaks of preventable diseases can spread more easily when vaccination rates drop.

Benefits of childhood vaccinations include:
• Protection against serious and potentially life-threatening diseases 💉🛡️
• Reduced spread of infections in schools and communities 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦✨
• Long-term protection and peace of mind 💙🌿
• Helping protect those who cannot be vaccinated ⚠️💛

Keeping vaccinations up to date is a simple step that can make a lifelong difference. 💙✨

MS Awareness Week is a chance to raise awareness of Multiple Sclerosis and support those living with the condition.

MS affects the brain and spinal cord and can cause a wide range of symptoms, including fatigue, vision problems, numbness, muscle stiffness and difficulties with balance or coordination. Symptoms can vary greatly from person to person, which is why understanding and awareness are so important.

There are still many myths about MS, which can lead to misunderstanding and stigma. Learning the facts can help people feel more supported and informed, whether you are living with MS or supporting someone who is. 💙🧠✨

23/04/2026

As Stress Awareness Month comes to a close, it’s a good moment to pause and reflect on the journey we’ve taken together this April.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve focused on the theme — reminding ourselves that reducing stress doesn’t require huge transformations. It starts with small, intentional actions.
The message throughout has been simple but powerful:

✨ Small actions create meaningful change
✨ Caring for ourselves helps us support others
✨ Connection builds resilience

Stress will always be part of life, but how we respond — individually and collectively — can make a huge difference.

As we move beyond April, the invitation remains the same:
Keep noticing. Keep checking in. Keep taking those small steps that support wellbeing.

Diabetic eye screening is an important part of diabetes care and helps protect your sight. Diabetes can damage the small blood vessels in the eyes, leading to a condition called diabetic retinopathy, which can cause vision loss if not detected early. Screening checks for early signs before you notice any changes, meaning treatment can start sooner and help prevent serious damage.

If you have diabetes and are aged 12 or over, you will usually be invited for screening every 1–2 years. The test is quick and involves taking photographs of the back of your eyes to check for any changes.

Attending your screening appointment can:
• Detect problems early before symptoms develop 👁️✨
• Help prevent or reduce sight loss 💙🩺
• Support long-term eye health as part of your diabetes care 🌿📊

Even if your vision feels fine, it’s important to attend when invited. 💙✨

Huge congratulations to our incredible Doctors, Dr Bird and Dr Baird, who completed the Manchester Marathon on Sunday! 🏃‍♂️🏅

Not only did they take on this amazing challenge, but they also raised money for two fantastic charities – Children’s Heart Surgery Fund and SENSE. Their dedication, determination, and commitment both in and out of the practice continue to inspire us all.

We are so proud of you both – what an outstanding achievement! 👏💙
