It's part of UK-wide campaign raising awareness of suicide
A UK-wide campaign looking to raise awareness around the subject of suicide has got underway at this year's TT races.
Baton of Hope was created by journalist, Mike McCarthy, after he lost his son to suicide in February 2021 and the initiative - which is set to go on a UK tour - is also hoping to encourage more open discussion around the issue.
Rider James Hillier was presented with the Baton of Hope on the TT grid ahead of today's Supersport TT Race 2.
He agrees it's an important cause to get behind:
Tributes paid to marshal dubbed 'one of the unsung heroes of TT and MGP'
TT 2026: Mike Browne enters third year with Russell Racing
TT 2026: Rhys Stephenson targeting steady progress for debut
TT 2026: DAO Racing returns with Josh Brookes at the helm
