Flying into Accra I couldn’t wait to get to the picturesque Lake Bosumtwi where this year’s Ghana Dental Outeach was located. It had been three months since I had met Mr Addei, Afrik and the other village leaders for the first time to discuss the possibility of organizing an outreach project based out of their village.

Arriving at the Bay View Lodge accommodation, set right on the lakeside, I met the 10 adventurous student dentists. They were all in high spirits and eager to start the treatment the following day having spent the first day visiting the partnership hospital in Kumasi and meeting the staff team and clinical supervisors. They had also had their first meeting with the primary school children they would be treating at the Adwafo RC Primary. All of the students were surpised by the warmth of the welcome they received from both teachers and students.
