MissingGloria, 81, is found in back garden


THE body of missing Holling- bourne woman Gloria Stringer was found in a garden inWilling- ton Street over the Easter holiday. Gloria (81) vanished on New


Year’sDay, sparking a huge search. But a body was discovered on


Good Friday, and officers say they are no longer searching for her.Her family,who set up a Facebook page to help find her, were informed of the discovery in the Willington Street garden. It is understood that she was identified from a watch and a hospitalwrist-band. An inquest into her death will be


held in July. Apolice spokesman said over the


Easter bank holiday: “A search for an 81-year-old woman reported missing fromHollingbourne in Jan- uary has led to the recovery of a body. “At 11.55amon Friday,March 30,


a woman’s body was found…For- mal identification has not yet taken place, however the next of kin of the missing woman have been in-


Leeds resident Gloria Stringer


formed. The death is currently being treated as unexplained but not suspicious. “A report will now be prepared


for the coroner.” Concerted


searches were


launched as StormEleanor swept in on January 2, when police combed the banks of the River Len in Old


Mill Lane and volunteers fromKent Search and Rescue scoured fields. Police officers, who have been


praised for the efforts they put in to try and find Gloria, went door to door, asking residents to check their sheds and outbuildings in caseGlo- ria had taken refuge there. The searches concentrated on Leeds, Otham,Kingswood, Langley,Chart Sutton, Downswood and land near Leeds Castle. A search helicopter was also de-


ployed, but as the days slipped by, hope faded that shewould be found alive. Gloria was known in the Hollingbourne and Leeds areas and was thought to be physically fit but suffering from episodes of confu- sion. From time to time, she would be


seen at jumble sales in Leeds. A resident who knew her said:


“We hoped that she’d be found alive somewhere, but as time went on, it was pretty obvious it wasn’t going to be good news.At least now her family can dealwith their loss.”

Business Focus Denture care to make you smile


SB Denture Design Ltd (formerly known as SB Dental Laboratory) are now pleased to offer our services directly to the public. SB was founded in 1989, producing quality denture work for dentists in Maidstone and the surrounding areas. Since then Steve, the founder of SB Denture


Design has been clinically trained so we are able to provide our services directly to you. He gained further clinical qualifications at the University of Central Lancashire (with merit) and this enables him to treat patients directly thus alleviating the need to visit the dentist for the impressions, denture try in and the fitting of the dentures. Any necessary after care would be provided by us as well.


With over 25 years of experience in manufacturing all styles of dental appliances, we can now hand craft your dentures for you from start to finish. By dealing directly with the technician who will make your dentures we can tailor your prosthesis to your own personal individual requirements. Using only the highest quality materials and all


the latest technologies you are guaranteed a product of the very highest standard. From

repairs and adjustments through to new sets we can offer a complete denture care service. Although the work is done ‘in house’ with


partial dentures and other more complex cases we work closely with the dentist. It is essential that the health of any remaining teeth are checked out before denture construction. This is necessary to ensure the prosthesis is a long term solution. We can accept referrals from you own dentist or we can arrange an appointment with one of our dental colleagues at your first appointment. Having the laboratory on the premises reduces


the waiting time for some services, some services like repairs can even be done while you wait. It is also an advantage as some larger adjustments can be done in house We pride ourselves in making sure everyone we


treat is happy with the product we produce and want our patients to have the confidence that their denture has been constructed with the utmost care and using only quality materials. Our aim is to make people comfortable with our treatment and confident with our product.
