A street collection in honour of Stephen Farrell and his recently bereaved father John took place on the Camlough Road, Newry on Christmas Eve 2016.
The wintry conditions on Christmas Eve did not deter Sean and Brian Farrell, accompanied by many of their family members and friends, from collecting for the local suicide prevention Charity PIPS Newry & Mourne.
