Cancelled children’s dental appointments

I want to make people aware of the dentist in Framlingham cancelling children’s routine appointments. My 3 children have now not seen a dentist in 2years as they were due an appointment in March 2020 but obviously could not attend at that point. I have called throughout the last 6mths and only 2 mths ago was I able to make an appointment for this august 24th. Yesterday, I received the an email cancelling it as the children are not vaccinated. As they are not even being offered vaccines yet, how can this happen? Surely we can do a lateral flow test before attending rather than cancelling altogether. I am a single parent on universal credit and cannot afford to take my children privately for dental care.
