Poor education about the importance of cleaning teeth leads to poor dental carer and oral health. This is also not helped by limited access to NHS dentists in some areas, and very limited access to orthodontists. Young people end up with poor teeth, which is embarrassing and upsetting

The district council has a lot pressure to meet UK government housing quotas, which results in limited housing types. Land for building is difficult to acquire, so builders want to maximise return. We have a lot of a very specific type of housing here, is crammed in, usually very small—lack of local amenities and recreational and around it
