Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise CIC
What We Do
PDSE is an innovative clinical service provider shaping new ways of providing dentistry to those most in need in the South West. We do this by running dental education facilities in Plymouth, Truro and Exeter, where students from Plymouth University studying for a career in dental health (as a dentist, hygienist or therapist) treat NHS patients under the supervision of qualified dental health professionals. We Provide oral health care and awareness for all, focusing on groups such as schoolchildren, the elderly, people with special needs, substance abusers, the homeless, prisoners – anyone who needs additional support to improve their oral health. We also ensure access to free dental care for all, but especially to those groups who may feel excluded from mainstream dentistry.

That local approach Our construction specialists are passionate about what they build, yet it's the 'why' that really inspires us. Whether it's a new school, university, healthcare centre, homes, leisure facility, cultural landmark, office or blue light facility....our work contributes to wider growth, well-being and prosperity. Our network of company offices (LCOs) across England and Wales, each with its own MD, provides national coverage with the benefit of a local team that's part of the community. This give customers the close support and attention they require, and its why over 60% of orders are repeat business. This national/local balance is how we do business, alongside our ‘local pound’ approach where up to 40 per cent of a project’s budget is spent with companies based within 20 miles, sustaining local jobs and driving growth. We want customers to know their needs are centre stage, rather than being lost as a small part of national structure.

Red Velvet Cinema
What We Do
Red Velvet Cinema is a small community cinema for older people particularly those who are lonely and socially isolated. After screening a classic film there is plenty of time for tea & cake and talking about people's memories of the film, the actors and the time in which it was set. Those that come believe they are coming to watch a film but really it's about conversation and companionship. And discussing the films enables people to avoid talking about 'sensitive' subjects which can trigger unwelcome feelings, such as, families, health and belonging. Red Velvet Cinema has definitely brought people together and helped them to feel connected.
