Story
Jack Pilkington was taking pictures of the derelict Royal Mail Sorting Office by Temple Meads for a school project when he was punched in the face by a man.
Despite his injury, the 16-year-old cycled to the Bristol Royal Infirmary for treatment, after being helped by a passing cyclist.
But while he was in hospital his mum believed his bicycle had been stolen.
Fortunately Jack's bike has now been recovered but as it was not in the best condition to begin with his mum has said she will get it serviced.
As Jack has been through so much, and people were so eager to donate to buy him a new bike when they thought his had been stolen we agreed to ask if anyone would be kind enough to help Jack's mum pay for a really high standard of bike service, instead of the basic service (£200 is the minimum you can set your target).

I work in the BRI and met this young man, seemed like a nice person, and quite shocked at what had happened. It'd be nice to think he could get his bike serviced.
