RU OK? Day: 10 September, 2020

R U OK? Day is our national day of action when we remind Australians to check in on each other's mental and physical health. 2020 has been a challenging year for everyone so it is especially important for us to connect with and support those around us.

This year's theme is 'There's more to say after RU OK?'. If you feel like something’s not quite the same with someone you know, trust your gut instinct and take the time to have a conversation, listen and encourage action. That conversation could change, or even save, their life. Not sure what to say? Follow these tips on how to ask.

JCU is holding a morning tea on Thursday, 10 September from 10:00am - 11:00am on the library lawns in Cairns and in Central Plaza Building 143 in Townsville. We hope you will join us for coffee and cake. It will be a great opportunity to catch up with your colleagues and friends, have a yarn and show you care.
