Dental health education in 1970 continued to be a feature of the service as in preceding years, projects
taking place in February and September. This aspect of the service is covered in considerable detail in that
section of the Director's Report which deals with Health Education. It was not possible to complete
inspection of all the schools in 1970 but there is good reason to believe that very nearly 100% will be
achieved in 1971.
All in all, 1970 was quite a good year, and bearing in mind the difficulties of Popham Road as it nears its
closure, there is considerable cause for satisfaction in the maintenance of our continuity of service, which is
after all what we strive for.
The Maternity and Child Health Service continued in much the same manner as in 1969. It is hoped that
with the opening of the new clinic in River Place in 1971 that it will be possible to expand this service.
