The Springfield Project is a safe and welcoming space where people from diverse backgrounds in our community can meet and receive support.

Here are some highlights from our School Readiness Here are some highlights from our School Readiness Stay and Play last week ✨ Startwell 

We celebrated the 50th anniversary of National Smile Month at our School Readiness Stay and Play session.

This year marks 50 years of the UK’s largest and longest-running oral health campaign, led by the Oral Health Foundation, promoting healthy smiles and good oral health habits for children and families.

At our session, we delivered an oral health workshop for parents and children, sharing simple ways to look after little teeth. Startwell character Smiley Shen helped us learn why brushing twice a day, choosing healthy snacks, and regular dental visits are so important.

Together, we explored fun ways to make toothbrushing part of everyday routines and talked about helping children build healthy habits for life.
