Police have called the attack on Nic Cruwys an "appalling, unprovoked assault that has left lasting damage."

Three teenagers have been jailed for their roles in the attack with two others given non-custodial sentences for public order offences.

Mr Cruwys' family said in a statement, external: "Although Nic will never fully recover, we are now hoping to try and move on with our lives and try and put the horrific situation behind us. 

"We are delighted that the people involved have been charged and hope that the verdict reflects the injuries Nic suffered and our family's pain and suffering caused by their mindless actions."
