Story

Thank you for giving generously... to see my bald head! 

My name is Ritu Gupta and I am an orthodontist and owner of Chichester Orthodontic Clinic. Inspired by the work of the hospice in caring for my mum who lost her battle with cancer (and lost her hair!), please support my brave head-shave. 

  • Hospice running cost            £6850 / day
  • Government contribution     only 7%
  • Help us                                    raise £3425 by 17 Feb 2016
  • Our practice will                    double your donation to £6850
  • AND I will                                Brave-a-Shave on 17 Feb 2016 

Supporting a children's hospice is appropriate for our business, which is dedicated to children. A visit to the orthodontist is a normal right of passage for many teenagers but sadly some will not have normal lives...

As a mum of two delightful daughters and a daughter who has recently lost her wonderful mum, my experiences have led me to this charity. I am thankful for the care provided at St Wilfrid's and for the generosity of those who donate who keep the hospice running. 

Thank you to my team, our patients, friends & family for your support.   Ritu x
