A frail man who was viciously attacked says his harrowing ordeal will not stop him from helping others.

Bradley Hannan, 29, who weighs just six stone, was on his way home from volunteering at Medway hospital when he was robbed while waiting for a bus in Chatham.

Now £3,500 has been raised for him, and yesterday, the Kent Broken Bikers Charity Club from Herne Bay gathered en mass at his house to present him with another collection.

Organiser Tyler Chitty said on the day that he hoped Mr Hannan would get justice, adding: “I hope this shows you that there are a lot of people that do care about you, Bradley.”

The Chatham victim, who has battled three brain tumours, was touched by the support and said: “People have been very helpful and it’s been very nice. People have been trying to get me a new phone and someone also offered to give me an Arsenal ticket.

“I’m not going to let what happened stop me from volunteering. I’ll go back.”

As well as the bikers, other kind-hearted people, touched by his plight have helped raise more than £3,500 to help him get back on his feet.

Mr Hannan was punched in the head and had his wallet and mobile phone stolen by a thug, near the May Moon Chinese takeaway at about 3.30pm on Wednesday.

After the story broke, Alison Fowler, 28, immediately sprang into action and set up a fundraising page.

Mrs Fowler, of Tonge Road, Murston, said: “It is just awful what has happened to him, I was so upset to read about it and my sister has a disability so felt so much for him.”

She had initially hoped to raise enough money to replace what was stolen out of his wallet and buy himself a treat, however, she has been gobsmacked at the response.

In just one day 185 people raised a massive £2,395 for him.

On Friday Mrs Fowler, said: “I can’t believe how well its gone. The messages I’ve had from his family say the mugging has knocked him for six, so I am hoping this will help boost his morale and help him in life. I can’t thank everyone enough.”

Staff at the Tesco Extra store in Gillingham have offered to replace Mr Hannan’s phone.

On Friday, his sister Daniela Golding, said: “Bradley can’t believe what’s happened – none of us can. It’s overwhelming.

“He is still a bit bruised and doesn’t want to go out, but my twin sister gave birth yesterday (Thursday), and he came to the hospital to see his niece.

“That put a smile on his face.”

In 2002 Mr Hannan was the overall winner of the Pride In Medway Awards.

He had been nominated in the young hero category after he was given a one-in-a-million chance of survival after treatment for a second brain tumour.

He was diagnosed in 1992 when he was five years old and after an operation, which left his face paralysed and disfigured, looked to be on the mend.

Surgery to correct the damage on his eyes and face followed, but three years later, Mr Hannan, who was 16 when he received the award, relapsed and faced more operations, radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

He had been nominated for his courage and achievements, despite stares and negative comments about his appearance.

Police are still looking for the suspect in Mr Hannan's attack - described as a man with tanned skin, aged between 20 and 30, of medium build, around 5ft 6in, with short black hair and was wearing a black jacket and dark blue jeans.
