Facebook bully's victims treated to day of pampering as online appeal shows how much people care

Kind-hearted: Kymberley Myles is organising a fun day
The teenage victims of a bullying attack viewed six million times on Facebook are to be treated to a day of pampering following an appeal by a singer.
Mother-of-two Kymberley Myles wanted to reach out to the two girls subjected to a humiliating attack in which one of them was forced to kneel on the ground.
The 28 year-old put an appeal on Facebook for companies to come forward and show the pair, who do not wish to be identified, how much people care.

The offers rolled in and the girls are due to be picked up in a limousine and taken shopping to Dominiques Boutique in Shirley, Birmingham, then driven to the city centre for a beauty makeover at the Benefit beauty counter in Debenhams.

Kymberley is also planning to take them to lunch and have their hair done in the Mailbox, reports the Birmingham Mail.
New Look have also offered the girls a 25% discount and the services of a personal shopper.
The girls’ parents said the two are “over the moon” at the prospect of them being spoiled.

Kymberley, who was signed to Ecko records and performed in Ibiza, said: “I’ve seen the video and I wanted to do something for the two girls.
"I wanted to try and help build their confidence back up.
“It’s one thing being bullied but to be publicly humiliated? You don’t get over something like that.
"That will be with them forever.”
Kymberley said the original plan was to invite them to the Pump, a youth hub at Lea Village, so they could hang out and make music and for a photographer to take some nice pictures of the two.
But the offers poured in after she put an appeal on Facebook.

Kymberley added: “I have contacted the parents and they have both agreed.
"They are over the moon. They are so excited. They will be taken to the music studio at a later date.”
A 16-year-old girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty to robbery and assault at Birmingham Youth Court and will be sentenced at a later date.
The court heard that she was drunk at the time.
She received thousands of death threats after the video of the attack was put on Facebook and has been remanded into council accommodation for her own safety.
