The 'Baton of Hope,' a suicide prevention initiative, will visit the TT races on Wednesday.
The baton acts as a symbol of hope to those suffering as a result of suicide bereavement or personal mental health struggles.
It'll be passed to rider James Hillier on the startline of Wednesday's race, ahead of its UK wide tour.
The baton will also be on display throughout the day at the TT Fan Park to raise awareness of the charity's vision of a zero suicide society.
