The Kimberley Dental Team (KDT) was founded by Jan and John Owen in May 2009. Following a visit to Halls Creek, Jan and John became increasingly aware of the inequality of dental health care compared to that of metropolitan Perth. Jan and John committed to the development of a volunteer team of dental health personnel, the Kimberley Dental Team, to enhance current services and improve dental health literacy.
The Rotaract Club of Perth is proud to support the Kimberley Dental Team’s effort and we regularly get together to pack thousands of toothbrushes so that the team can take them with them when they go to the Kimberley region.
Our latest Toothbrush packing day was held on Sunday 25th July and our members met and packed over 10 000 toothbrushes as pictured!
Great effort by our team of superstar toothbrush packers! Stay tuned as there will be more fun opportunities to help the KDT soon.
