WOKINGHAM residents are being invited to have a curry for a good cause.
Sultan Balti Palace, in Market Place, is hosting a charity fundraiser this weekend to support a local youngster in need.
In February, Wokingham.Today reported on Paul and Nathalie Gosling, who are hoping to raise £60,000 to pay for vital surgery for their two-year-old son, Dawson, who has a rare form of cerebral palsy.
They are currently fundraising to pay for an operation and aftercare, which will allow him to walk on his own.
Shortly after the Gosling family launched their fundraiser, Sultan Balti Palace’s executive chef, Kuldeep Singh, created a new ‘Dawson Dish’ in an effort to raise extra funds for the cause.
Now, throughout tomorrow and Saturday, the restaurant will be selling the dish — a chicken biryani — outside to passers-by and plans to donate every penny raised to the family.
Raja Majid, owner of Sultan Balti Palace, has expressed his thanks to customers and business associates for supporting their work so far.
Since February, the restaurant has also been donating £1 from every order to the fundraiser.
Anybody in Wokingham town centre can sample the dish and make a donation tomorrow and on Saturday between 9am and 5pm.
