Your Natter Matters
Ageing is not without challenges – health, relocation, loss, isolation or difficulties completing tasks that were once simple – any of these can lead to friends, family members or neighbours becoming disconnected from their community and support networks.
A simple chat can mean everything to a friend or loved one who might be struggling. Whether you're a senior Australian yourself, a friend, family member or neighbour, the R U OK? ‘Your natter matters’ resources provide you with practical tools and tips to recognise the signs that a senior Australian might be struggling with life’s ups and downs and the confidence to ask “are you OK?”
The signs it’s time for an R U OK? conversation can be subtle. There might be changes in verbal or non-verbal behaviour. Someone might tell you they’re having difficulty filling their days or they might be withdrawing from social situations but by making time to support someone who is doing it tough, you could change, or even save, their life.
