The Old Banqueting Hall, Cutlers’ Hall, 7-15 Church St, Sheffield S1 1HG

The College Summer Reception, incorporating the fourth annual College Fellows’ Summer Reception, is an opportunity to network with your peers in the grand surroundings of the historic Cutlers’ Hall, Sheffield.

All dental professionals and those with professional interests in contemporary dentistry are invited to attend, with discounted tickets available to College members.

The Summer Reception will include the ceremonial admission of new Fellows, and for the first time also Associate Fellows of the College. The President’s Award will also be presented during the Reception, and the 2025 winner of the prestigious College Medal will be announced (tbc). Photographs of the event will be made available to attendees shortly afterwards to download free of charge.

Taking place at 5pm to 8pm, with registration open from 4.30pm, it follows the Inaugural College of General Dentistry Lecture, which will be delivered by Martin Kelleher FCGDent, Consultant in Restorative Dentistry at King’s College Dental Hospital.

For these events, we will also be gathering alumni, course directors and examiners to celebrate the achievements of the Diploma in Restorative Dentistry programme which was established 20 years ago by our predecessor organisation, the Faculty of General Dental Practice UK (FGDP). 

These special events are open to all dental professionals and others with professional interests in contemporary dental practice.
