Campervan convoy for Jersey teen's prom

A Jersey teenager's dream journey to prom has come true!

Zac Jones, 18, who has autism and additional learning difficulties, has always had a love of VW campervans, so his mum Samantha put out a request to ask if one could transport him to the Radisson Blu Hotel.

It wasn't just one, it was seven!

Zac selected John and Anne Pasturel's VW as his favourite to ride to prom in!

John said:

"On Facebook, we saw a little advert to come and help Zac for his prom night, so we said yep, we'll get the van out!

"We're T2 VW enthusiasts after having driven one back from Kuwait back in 1986!

"The honour is ours, and to meet other people with VW Campers is fun!

Anne added:

"He also wanted a blue one, he liked blue, so we thought, well, we can't not do it!

Nicki D'Anger, who also brought her campervan, said:

"We are lucky enough to have this beautiful camper, I know it's not a classic one, but it's what we do in Jersey, it's what we do to help!

"There isn't a day that goes by that I don't look at this van and just fall in love with it all over again, and I thought if I can bring a little bit of cheer to Zac on his prom night, then why not!

"Full credit to his mum for organising this!"
