Pearl White Dental duo celebrate company’s fifth anniversary by raising funds for two great causes on 500-mile bike ride


T


his year is Pearl White Dental Laboratory’s fifth anniversary and, to mark this event, Joe and Wendy have decided to try to raise funds for two dental charities through the charity


bike ride organised by Straumann. This is to give thanks to the clients, suppliers


and the dental industry in general for giving them the opportunity to make Pearl White the success it is in 20ı4. The two worthy charities benefiting


are Bridge2Aid and the Cleft Lip and Palate Asso- ciation (CLAPA). Bridge2Aid are based in Tanzania and provide


emergency dental treatment and training in rural communities. Their vision is to expand across the


world and cater for all rural communities who don’t have access to dental care and can sometimes suffer toothache for years. The other charity to benefit from our fund-


raising effort is CLAPA,, who help those with and affected by cleft lip and palate. The bike ride starts in Milan on


3 September and travels over the famous Stelvio Pass in the Alps, which is a 9,045ft climb with 48 hairpins. It then carries on through Austria, Liechten- stein and Germany, before finishing in Basel, Switzerland. This gruelling 500-mile bike ride over


five days takes serious training. It is the biggest challenge we have done and will be the most rewarding. We are the only participants from


Scotland this year and would be grateful if everyone could support us on our journey. Any donations can be made through uk.virginmoneygiving.com/ johnjacksonpearl or uk.virgin- money gi ving.com / t eam / straumannwendyjackson
