Our team joined the conversation movement on 13 September by hosting an RUOK day morning tea to raise awareness of the importance of meaningful conversations every day.

R U OK?’s vision is a world where we’re all connected and are protected from suicide.

Whilst it might seem like a simple question, it can often be a difficult one to ask. The GRC team focused the day on providing the team with simple techniques to help overcome those initial barriers. To coincide with the emphasis of knowing and understanding the behaviours of work colleagues, the team hosted a “who well do you know your colleagues” with a trivia challenge.

By starting a conversation and commenting on the changes you’ve noticed, you could help that family member, friend or workmate open up.
