A music festival is to be held to help raise funds towards a former police officer’s gruelling charity cycling effort from Stirling to Rome in aid of the respite home built in memory of tragic teen Eilidh Brown.
Last month, we told how Johnny Dreczkowski, from Bridge of Allan, will cycle more than 1,400 miles in May as he bids to complete the enormous challenge by cycling from Stirling Castle all the way to the historic Colosseum in Rome.
Johnny, who previously worked as a Detective Inspector with the Head of Counter Terrorism and Covert Specialist Training at Police Scotland following almost 30 years police service, sets off on the marathon trip on May 28.
