💛 Ask R U OK? Any Day.

R U OK?Day is an important reminder that a simple conversation can make a meaningful difference — but checking in with the people around us shouldn’t be limited to just one day.

Whether it’s a friend, family member, colleague, neighbour or someone in your community, if you’ve noticed they’re not quite themselves, take the time to ask “Are you OK?”, listen and let them know you’re there.

You don’t need to have all the answers. Sometimes, simply making the time to genuinely listen can be an important first step.

💛 Ask R U OK? Any Day — because life happens every day.

Learn more about starting a conversation and accessing support at ruok.org.au.

If you or someone you know needs additional support:
☎️ Lifeline: 13 11 14
☎️ Beyond Blue: 1300 22 4636
☎️ Kids Helpline: 1800 55 1800

If life is in immediate danger, call Triple Zero (000).
