Dental teams stage virtual lockdown gig

Dental practices in the Clyde Munro groupings Scotland are either working from home or furloughed during the coronavirus pandemic.

Now a number of singers, musicians and performers from within the ranks of the company are to perform a two-hour online gig for co-workers in an event being billed as The Lockdown.

Hundreds of workers from the group are expected to tune in on Friday night for the event and are even being urged to dress up in music festival outfits, headgear and glitter.

The concert is the brainchild of Clyde Munro founder, Jim Hall, who launched the business in 2015 with the acquisition of seven practices. He said: 'Nothing is more important than our people.

'We have an amazing team at Clyde Munro who are passionate about supporting each other during these worrying times for everyone. We want to do whatever we can to maintain morale.'

Jim has driven the rapid growth of the Scottish-based and Scottish-focused group through acquisition and Clyde Munro now comprises 40 practices across Scotland, with more than 200 dentists, 350 staff and 300,000 patients.
