Healthwatch Redbridge calls for
better local NHS dental services

Healthwatch Redbridge is calling for better
NHS dental services in the borough following
the publication of their findings from a survey
on dental care. “In some cases, patients
were told they would have to wait more
than three months for an emergency dental
appointment,” said a spokesperson. NHS
dental costs were also cited as confusing.
”Some patients told us they were unaware
they were being treated as a private patient,
ending up with expensive treatment costs.”

Voting will take place this month to
elect Redbridge’s two Members of Youth
Parliament. All young people (11- to 18-yearolds)
who live or study in Redbridge are
eligible to vote, and ballots will be delivered to
secondary schools, colleges and other centres
around the borough. “A total of 96 young
people applied to take part in the election and
10 candidates were selected,” said a Redbridge
Council spokesperson. The Youth Parliament
term starts in March and runs for two years.
