A GROUP of bikers have raised £250 to buy a special weighted blanket for a four-year-old lad suffering from high spectrum autism.

The Whistlestop Bikers, who ride from all over the area to meet at the Teignmouth station cafe every Tuesday evening, handed the blanket over to Riley Pitts, pictured here in the pushchair with his mum Sarah Pring.

The other children in the picture are, from left, Crystal Mallett, 10, Cameron Avery, 10, and Alfie Mallett, seven.
