IT'S all smiles at Beacon DentalCare in Malvern after the team won a national industry award.
It saw of competition from practices around the UK to win the Private Dentistry Award at a ceremony in London.
David Watson, co-owner of Beacon, said: "It was such an honour to step up onto the stage at the Park Lane Hilton and receive an award in front of several hundred of the very best dentists in the UK. The fact that we won this award for our continued dedication to supporting our local community makes it even more special. I couldn’t believe it when our name was announced- the rest of the night is still a blur."
Karen Sutton , co-owning dentist , added: "We have been shortlisted for the Private Dentistry Awards every year since we opened seven years ago, which I think is something of a record. To finally win one of these prestigious awards is really a testament to the hard work and dedication of the Beacon team, who never cease to go that extra mile."
The practice has been running a community heroes awards of its own, the Beacon Shining Lights Awards, to recognise the work of unsung local people. This unique endeavour was shared with the judges, as well as the practices’ work with local charity Onside, on the Beacon Garden Project.
