R U OK?

RUOK? Day is on 12th September, 2024

However, EVERYDAY is a good day to ask your friends and family "R U OK?"

Ask R U OK? Any Day because life happens every day.  A lot can happen in a year, a month, a week. Whether it’s your friend, family member, colleague, partner, or teammate, the people you care about go through life’s ups and downs every day. And they’re not alone, with 72% of Australians reporting elevated levels of distress.

Regular, meaningful conversations with the people close to you can help prevent small things from becoming big things. By checking in regularly, you build trust and normalise talking about what’s really going on, so when the people in your world find themselves struggling, they know you’re someone they can talk to.


So don't wait for R U OK? Day on September 12, Ask R U OK? Any Day of the year because a conversation could change a life.
