Bristol Deliveroo driver with 'huge heart' hit by car and can't work for six months

A delivery driver with a "huge heart" will be out of work for months after he was hit by a car while working in Clifton.

Julio Cesar Pacheco, from Patchway, was in the collision on Monday, April 4 at around 9.30pm while working on his last job of the evening. He was rushed to hospital where x-rays showed he had broken his leg in two parts.

The 49-year-old - who works for Deliveroo and UberEats - is the sole earner of his household, meaning the family will be without income for more than six months. His friend and colleague, Felippe Chagas, has launched a fundraiser with some of his friends to help support Julio financially while he recovers.
