Editorial - A Time to remember

Special Care Dentistry has seen great advances in recent months. Those working within the discipline were delighted that three of its members were acknowledged in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List. Norman Campbell was appointed OBE for his services to dentistry. Norman has spent the majority of his working life providing care for people with disabilities, initially with Trevor Castles, also a BSDH member, in Northern Ireland. Norman has contributed significantly to developing the service in the City Hospital in Belfast as well as in other centres around the city. Furthermore, he has provided undergraduate and postgraduate dental education in Special Care Dentistry and those working alongside him view his imminent retirement with trepidation. Janet Griffiths, working also as an Associate Specialist but in South Wales was honoured with an MBE for her services. Those who know Janet will be well aware that her devotion to people with disabilities does not stop with her professional life, but extends to the charity with which she is involved, founded by her parents, to provide significant recreational and other social benefits to adults with intellectual disabilities.
