Showing Australia you've got what it takes
hello • 19 September 2017
On our Conversation Convoy we’ve travelled 14,000 km, visited 30 communities and shown countless Australians how to Ask R U OK?, Listen, Encourage action and Check in. Because we’ve all got what it takes to follow those steps and support those struggling with life.
The R U OK? Conversation Convoy aimed to inspire every Aussie, no matter their location, to invest more time in the people around them and give them the skills, motivation and confidence to start a conversation with anyone they may be worried about.
Here's what was achieved over our six week journey:
If you’re unsure, uncomfortable or not sure how to ask R U OK? visit www.ruok.org.au/how-to-ask
If you or a loved one need extra support head to www.ruok.org.au/findhelp
R U OK? ambassadors have shared their stories and the importance of asking R U OK? Any Day.
After losing their friend Jade, a group of friends formed the Sunflower Sisters to honour her memory. Running the City2Surf, they raised awareness about mental health and the power of checking in.
Don’t wait for R U OK?Day to bring the message to your classroom. Use these ten ideas to build an R U OK? Culture in your school community.
