REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED)
Achievement and Perforniance
During the year. the Trustees spent £75.822 in pursuit of the aims of the charity's objectives and
a¢tivities. This is an increase of 4.2 /0 compared to the previous year.
Over the year, we have concentrated on areas of Hull. the East Riding, South Humber, North
Yorkshire: and arw of deprivation around Nottingham. This is based on our ability to reach these
areas and relationships already established with volunteer dentists in those areas.
Through our CO￿ programme. we have worked hard to ensure that we reach as many childr¢n as
possible in these locations and over the past 12 months have worked with 19 sCh￿IS in total. I l in
Hull. 3 in li'ottingham, 4 in North Yorkshire and one school in South Humkr.
We have worked with 3791 children, all of whom have received toothbrushes and toothpaste
throughout the year and have undergon¢ daily suFrvised toothbrushing within school. We have
distributed 9.328 toothbrushes and 1824 tubes of tsKithpaste, an average of one child per term. In
addilion, all the children have received two dental examinations this year by volunteer dentists
equating ÉO 7,582 dental assessments and 7,582 fluoride vamish applications to protect their teeth.
Foundation Dentists have continu¢d to supp)rt the Teeth Team programme and the conlributed
volunteer time given through the Deaneries to Teeth T¢am.
Other dental practices in Hull and other areas where Teeth Team operated had given 38 days
completely free of charge to Teeth Team at a value of £59280. Two dentists per day. (British Guild
Rate @ £780.00 a day per Ikntisl)
Of the 3,791 children examined. in total, there were 2.880 decayed teeth. This is tooth decay that will
affect other t¢cth and the future of developing teeth and is a shocking statiSti¢ in children so young.
orthese, 811 children required dentsl treatmeni and 265 n¢¢ded urgent trea1Jnent.
This means that 21.30/0 of the children seen by volunteer dentists needed tr¢atment such as fillings
and tooth extractions. Within those numkrs. 7/0 were in urgent need, meaning 265 children will
have been experiencing acute patn and suffering that was left unchecked and without our
intervention. would only ever get worse.
Sadly, to date, not all th¢ 811 ohildren who needed treaknent have accessed the dentsl treatment they
urgently need. Whilst it is positive for those children that have now received treattnent and they are
no longer experiencing pain and Suffering, At does mean that despite l¢tters being issued to parents
and Carers and follow up letters. some children have still not been taken to a dental surgery for
treatment even though we match them with local dentists to facilitate this.
After three dental assessments in schools, if parents still fail to lake their ¢hild to a local dent15t
surgery, we work with th¢ schools to raise this as a safeguarding issue and the school arranges to call
the parents in for a discu&sion. Thi5 is because these children will be ex￿rIencing pain and without
treatmenL ¢ould eveniually need full tooth ¢xtraction which leaves them only able to eat soft foods
until adult teeth come through. It also mcaDS that as baby teeth Set the channel for adult teeth, as adult
teeth come through. they will go through a 'teething' process with significant pain. Furthennore, the
adult teeth atr unlikely to emerge frovn gums in a straight line because they will take the path of l¢ast
resislanc¢ meaning they will need signifA¢ant denta] care well into adulthood.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (coYfINUED)
Without Teeth Team. it is highly likely that these children would not ￿ceive any treatment in the
long tern], leaving them in pain and suffering. Even though dental we is free for children, ther¢ is
still much to do to educate parenls, to get parents to emI￿d oral heahh in their daily routines and to
take children for dentsl checkups on a regular basis.
Neiv Developments
In addition to our main programm4 this Y￿ we develO￿d a progrdmme to train dental practices in
other areas of the Country to replicate the Teeth Team programme and deliver it in their own areas.
W¢ presented a proFK)sal to the Integrydt¢d Care Board about Teeth Team and how we operate. Our
proposal was accepted, and we havc now delivered training acro￿ Yorkshire. Bringing more
volunteer dental practices into the programme 15 a ¢ost<ffective way of reaching more children and
other areas of deprivation.
We have extended the programme into North Yorkshire, East Yorkshir¢. York and are reaching more
sGhools in Hull. This is in line with OUT Continued desire to reach as many children living in areas of
deprivation as possible.
Since April 24, we hav¢ delivetEd 22 days of training to new dental practices in Hull, Beverley,
Driffield, Goole, North Yorkshire, YorL Malton. Pickering, Scarborough and Filey to help them
develop thtir own Teeth Team programme. This has included comprehenslve training and th¢
organisation and supply of literaturc. d¢ntal supplies and the relevant infonnation needed to h¢lp
volunteer dental practice adopt the Teeth Team model.
As a result-
33 new volunteer dentsl wactices across North and Fast Yojkshire, York, and Hull are now
delivering the Teeth team programm¢.
32.649 more children are now engaocd and brushing their teeth everyday as well as receiving
all of the additional supp)rt teeth team offers.
145 more primary schools a￿ involved in the pro8fdmm¢.
Through this ICB programrne. 97,947 toothbrushes and toothpaste have been distributed.
Over the next year. w¢ will support the 33 dental prnctices to e2rry on with the programme
independently of Teeth Team and then train a new group of practices so we can continue to extend
the reach.
Teeth Team, through our own prograrnme and the training we have delivered to other practices. have
ensur￿ that 36.419 children are brushing t￿1r teeth every day in areas of deprivation. many of these
children would not brushing their leeth at all without Teeth Team and the work we do.
During the year, Tetth Team sUcCe￿fUllY submitted several grant applic*ions to Charitable Trusts
and Fow]dations leading to grants of £26,924. Details can be found in note 5.
Income is essential. because ov¢r the past 12 months we have continued to increase ihe numkrs of
children we support and over the coming 12 months, we plan to continue to grow the programmer
and reach more children.

(A COMPAN'Y LIMtTED BY GUARANTEE)
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (COIYTINUED)
Schools continue to be under pressure. and some are reluctant to engage with Teeth Team, due to
pressures on both time and costs. How¢v¢r. we are continuing to lobby schools to demonstrate to
them the imwrL2nce of oral health to a child's (kvelopment. The number of children with tooth
decay in the schools with which we ate workin& as an avernge. will mean that therc will bc literally
thousands of chlldren in schools, with whom we are not working, that will be experiencing pain and
suffering, which will only ever get worse. We continu¢ to ￿tIVelY encourage schools so we can get
into as many schools as tx)ssible so we can identify these children and ensure they get the treatment
they need.
The schools we target are identified using data in the IDACI index whicb me2sur¢s the prowrtion of
children in the school living in household poverty and we tsrget schools who are highest on the index
and by the levels of children in the school in receiN of frce school meals.
In addition to the work we do at Teeth Tcam. through the training we have deliv¢red to other areas of
Yorkshire. we can encourage other dental prdctices to supw)rt their local schools and ensure that
children in these schools receive ornl health education. toothbrushes and toothpaste. biannual
assessment and application of fluoride varnish and direct referral to local dentists for treatment.
Those children in need of treatment automatically gain access to dental services for their siblings and
parents if need be. In this way we helping to develop a programme of prevention, ac¢¢ss. and
treatment for literally thousands of chilthEn at no cost to Teeth Team and reaching right across
Yorkshire. This Means we reach far more children the Teeth Team could reach alone.
Our long-terni aim would be to roll out this programme across the whole of the UK but there is still
mltch to do. The Trustees believe that the services we provide and will continue to provide are of
great benefit to the community and we look forward to continuing to protect ihe oral health of
children living in areas of deprivation within the areas where Teeth Team delivers the programme
and encouraging other areas to adopt our systems to help schools and children in their own
communiti¢s.

NOTES TO THE AccouNrs (CONTINUED)
Trustee5' retnuneration
Ms E. Harriso￿ & directorltnth, w&5 paid £250 (2024 £4,750) for professional services to the
company. The setvices provided included Mark¢ting and PR and was provided at a lower cost tha
we would have re¢¢iv¢d elsewhere. The charge was also low￿ than Ms Harrison would charge for
her normal 5erYices to other OTgartisations. This decision was carefully wnsidered at a Trubt¢es
meeting which did nol includ¢ Ms HarrI￿)n in the discussion and was considered to be in the best
interest of the charity. This is because the cost was lower than the costs from other providers and Ms
Harrison in depth knowledge of T¢eth Team saved signifi¢anl lime and costs. On the basis of this and
in ac¢ordance with the requirements of the Charities commissio￿ a written agreement was signed
which made Clear the purw)se and costs of these services to Teeth Team. However. these services
will not be r4uir¢d in future years.
Related parties
£32.416 (2024 £31,821) was paid to 543 Dental Services Ltmited A c¢mpany controlled by CJ
Grooml)ridge, a TrnStee￿lreCtQr for professional services. Teeth Team does not employ any staff at
all but relies heavily on volunleer dentists who visit schools and undertake the ordl assessments.
However. the day-tIHlay plannin8, 0￿rationS and managem¢nt of dental supplies. flttoride varnish
applications and communications with sch(K)Is is Ca￿led out by two dental ￿Urse9. The hours they
work on the charity ￿ sporadic with very busy periods Nice a year during scl)ool visit5 and when
ordering and distribution dental supplies to sCh￿]S but then other times of the year. these two posts
are not required. D¢ntai nurses are highly skilled and qualified and so teeth team would be unable to
secure dental nurses on what, in effecL would be zero hours contracts to account for the fluctuation in
days w0￿1ng throughout the year.
Therefor¢, Teeth Team uses two qualifIed (kntal nur5e5 employed be 543 Denta] SerYi¢es Limited as
and when required on a basic hourly rat¢. The charge5 from 543 Dental Services Limited only cover
the costs of the basic hourly pay aud is the most ¢ost-¢ffe¢tive way to access th¢ s¢rvi¢¢s of Sp￿la11$t
dental nurses. Trustees would like to make clear the 543 Dcntal Services make absolutely no profit
from the arrangement and are simply reiTt]bursed at the very basic Cost.
Teeth Team Tmsttts have explored all other option4 but the aIternativ¢ would be the charity
employtng two dental nurses who would have little to do for large p¢riods of the year and therefore
would not be Cost effective. In additioo this would incur high¢r Charges to ihe charity in the forni of
