Who we are

A family business near Liverpool. You get the same team every week. When something needs changing, you ring us and it's sorted.

Most practices are still stuffing envelopes by hand. There's a much better way.

Your patient management system already has everything we need. You export the file, send it to us, and by the next morning it's personalised, printed, sealed and in the post. Every patient gets the right letter. Every week. Without you touching a single envelope.

We handle runs from 80 letters a week up to tens of thousands. The job is the same either way: right letter, right patient, right time, every time.

What we do for dental practices

Three services. One supplier.

Everything your practice sends by post, handled end-to-end from your data file to Royal Mail collection.

01

Weekly Patient Recall Letters

Personalised recall letters on a weekly cycle, straight from your patient management system. Patient name, dentist, last appointment date, every letter feels like it came directly from the practice. Works with Exact, Dentally, Software of Excellence and most others.

Recurring weekly
02

Treatment Plan & Multi-Piece Packs

Follow-up packs after consultations with up to four documents inserted automatically, the letter, a treatment leaflet, a reply slip and a return envelope. All enclosed in one pass at high volume. No manual stuffing, no errors.

Up to 4 inserts
03

New Patient Acquisition Postcards

Full-colour A5 or A6 postcards targeted by postcode to households in your catchment area. Ideal for new branch launches, NHS registration openings or cosmetic promotions. Designed, printed and posted, all under one roof.

From 250 postcards
04

Appointment Reminder Letters

Reduce no-shows with timely, personalised appointment reminder letters sent days before a patient is due in. Triggered from your system, printed and posted to arrive at exactly the right time. A simple addition that pays for itself immediately.

Triggered send
05

Reactivation & Lapsed Patient Campaigns

Win back patients who haven't visited in 12, 18 or 24 months. A targeted letter or postcard to your lapsed list, personalised, with a clear reason to return and a simple call to action. One campaign can fill a month's appointment book.

One-off or recurring
06

Data Cleansing & Address Validation

Before we print a single letter, every patient list is run through address validation, deduplication, gone-away and deceased suppression. You stop wasting postage on bad addresses and stay compliant with GDPR, automatically, on every run.

Every job, every time
What we're set up to handle

The kind of volume most practices don't realise is possible.

We invest in professional mailing equipment so practices don't have to. Here's what that means in practice for you.

Thousands of letters an hour

Our high-speed inserting equipment processes envelopes at a rate most practices couldn't match in a full working week. Your recall run is done before lunch.

📦

Up to 4 documents in one envelope

Recall letter, practice leaflet, reply slip and a return envelope, all inserted automatically in one sealed pack. No manual stuffing. No mistakes.

Every envelope verified

Barcoding technology checks that the right documents go into the right envelope for every single patient. Critical for data accuracy and compliance.

🔁

Variable packs per patient

Some patients need an extra leaflet. Some don't. Our system handles different document sets per patient automatically, no manual sorting required.

📬

Royal Mail same day

Data received before 11am goes out the same afternoon. We hold buffer stock of the most common envelope formats so nothing ever holds up an urgent run.

🔒

GDPR-compliant data handling

Every patient file is processed securely. Addresses are validated and cleaned before print. Suppressed against deceased and gone-away records as standard.

💷

Postage at Royal Mail cost

We show postage as a separate line on every invoice, exactly what Royal Mail charges. Nothing marked up, nothing bundled. Total transparency.

📋

Works with your existing system

Export a file from Exact, Dentally, Software of Excellence or most other patient management systems. We handle the rest, no integration needed.

Postcard examples

Print that actually gets noticed.

Full-colour postcards targeted to households in your catchment area. Sample designs, your branding replaces everything shown.
