Business in the Community (BITC) has collaborated with Norwich City on a campaign to tackle toothache, linked to poor dental hygiene, among Earlham's children.
Tracey Drake, head of place for BITC in Norwich, said: "Food and hygiene poverty are rising, leaving many families without access to nutritious food and basic hygiene products.
"This crisis not only affects nutrition but also impacts dental health. Children are experiencing toothaches and dental pain, leading to attendance issues at school and difficulties accessing dental services."
