Neighbours and R U OK? star Rob Mills shares what being a good neighbour means to him

Hello • 25 March 2019

Neighbours TV show and R U OK? star Rob Mills shares what being a good neighbour means to him ahead of this year’s annual day of community and connection - Neighbour Day.

Everybody loves good neighbours! What does being a good neighbour mean to you?

It means being community minded. Thinking of others and being a good person... You know, “do unto others...”


Ramsay Street is a great example of a connected neighbourhood. How do you think people can create their own Ramsay Street?

Smile more. Hold the lift/door for someone. Lend a hand when someone is moving in or out or just with their shopping bags... working bees. Ask how someone is. Really ask.


Neighbour Day is on this Sunday 31 March. How will you be celebrating it?

I live in the city so, hopefully celebrating a Hawthorn Hawks victory at the neighbouring MCG, and then catching up with some of my thespian neighbours from the surrounding theatres in town.

Get involved with a Neighbour Day event near you!
