A MUM has appealed for the safe return of her teenage son's bike, which was stolen from Fish Street in Worcester.

Cameron Penn's Carrera bicycle was locked up in a bike rack when it was stolen on Thursday, between 2pm and 4pm.

Cameron, aged 16, needs the bike to get to his job at a farm in Besford from his home in Spetchley.

His mum Rachel said: "Where we live there's no public transport so the only way he can get to work is either we give him a lift in the early hours or he goes on his pushbike.

"He uses that bike for most things – if he wants to go anywhere he goes on his bike."

Cameron, who is heading to Hartpury College to study agriculture, is working at the farm in his holidays to get some experience.

He bought the bike in January after saving up cash and receiving Christmas money.

Anyone with details should call police on 101, quoting incident number 0538 of May 28.
