We hope with this page to raise awareness of the plight of people in Northern Malawi who in some areas may suffer from dental pain for months or years without seeing a dental professional. We also want to show the great work that can be carried out by the local people with just a little help. Malawi is full of well educated and caring dental professionals who need the correct resources to be able

to work safely. The page will also be used from time to time to request help for other aspects of health care, sport, nutrition and general wellbeing. If you enjoy this page then please share it with your friends and family.

A big thanks to Ross Saunderson of Polwarth Dental Clinic for his kind donation of dental equipment which we now have in the Bananabox Trust warehouse in Dundee. The equipment will be shipped in the next container to our colleagues in Malawi over the coming months.

If you think that you can help us further with dental equipment or instruments then please let us know. The president of Smile North in Malawi has requested the equipment and instruments that you can see in the attached screenshot for his members

We’ve just signed up for the Kiltwalk’s Mighty Stride on Sunday 26th April 2026 and are looking for others to join us on what is always a fun (if exhausting) day and a great opportunity to raise some funds to help improve oral health and dental services in Malawi.
