A bullied schoolgirl had the last laugh after showing up to her prom with an escort of almost 300 bikers.

Felicity Warburton, 15, was made to feel "worthless" by her tormentors from the age of
just seven and had been terrified about the event.

But she was stunned when bikers showed up in their droves on Monday (6/9) night - revving their engines to applause from Felicity’s classmates and teachers.

Her mum, Kathryn Warburton, put out an appeal on Facebook last month asking for WAC Motorcycle Club to attend the prom at the Worcester Warriors Stadium to support the teen.

She wrote: “Felicity has been looking forward to her prom as she feels that this will be the point where she can show them (the bullies) that they can’t hurt her anymore.

Dad Rich Morris, 45, from Droitwich, Worcs., said: “It was amazing. We were hoping for maybe ten or so bikers to come but there were hundreds.

“They kept coming batch by batch until there were so many bikers you couldn’t even see Felicity in the middle of them all.

“They were even given an escort by a group of ex-police officers and prison guards.

“We were blown away.

“Felicity loved every minute and it was just incredible to see the support from all the bikers.”

Felicity, who has dyslexia and Asperger’s Syndrome, suffered bullying from her tormentors who verbally abused her on a daily basis since she was at primary school.
