To: The Prime Minister and Health Secretary
Watchdog Healthwatch England’s damning report is calling on the government to prioritise reforming our broken dental care system to avoid further harm to people’s health. The report showed that people on low incomes, those living in the northeast and people from ethnic minority groups were hardest hit by the broken system.
It’s time the government puts an end to this scandal and ensures our dental care system provides quality and affordable care for us all - regardless of who we are, where we live or how much we earn.
Petition text
