Community is a modern trade union with 45,000 members across the UK. Community represents and supports people just like you. Find out more at the Scottish Dental Show about who we are, where we come from, and what we believe in. Formed in 2004 from a merger between steel (ISTC) and textile (KFAT) unions, Community Union has deep roots in communities across the UK, maintaining a connection with the workers throughout. 

Dental nurses are a vital part of the dental team with a broad scope of responsibilities including cross-infection control, patient and staff safety, streamlining dental procedures, and the patient journey. However, with the job comes many challenges, insecurities, and fears – that’s where we come in. 

At Community, we fight to protect our members working across dental practices in the UK and support them with issues around dealing with workplace bullying, pay and wages, contracts, holidays, sickness and leave and more. As a member of Community, you can go to work and feel safe knowing that we are here to fight your corner when you need us. 

Community is a proud campaigning union, focusing on issues that affect workers, including dental nurses. Community, along with our members, is raising awareness of menopause and making it a trade union issue, working with employers and the UK Government to make conversations around menopause easier and accessible. 

From £8 a month, dental nurses are five minutes away from attaining a Community Union membership, which gives access to a range of services including advice, discounted cost of legal services, discounts and savings on amenities, and accident cover on your car. Visit the website to join Community today.

We look forward to meeting you in Scotland, so please come by stand B04 to say hello, and to talk about how Community Union can help dental nurses.
