For the first time ever, schools across Newry, the Mournes and south Armagh will come together in an Olympic torch relay to raise awareness of suicide support services.
Groups of 25 students and teachers from 13 schools will cover more than 11 miles on the streets of Newry this morning.
The relay will finish at the town hall at lunch time.
Eamon Murphy from charity PIPS Newry and Mourne says there will be a few familiar faces along the route:
