Dental Mavericks: Founded in 2010 with the aim to provide dental care for children in Morocco, Dental Mavericks has since facilitated treatments for more than 30,000 children. EBF has been working with the charity since 2014 and is proud to help their mission to provide pain-free dental care and education about the importance of toothbrushing. If you are a dentist, dental nurse or hygienist and would like to get involved with our 2023 mission, please click here.
Have Fun, Do Good: Every year, we host 'Climb Morocco', a once in a lifetime adventure to climb North Africa's highest peak, Mount Toubkal. Led by Virgin Atlantic pilot Chris Hall, the climbers raise funds for our local community projects. In 2022, the team raised an incredible £20,000 spurred on by Chris's fundraising motto "Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone".
