SUMMARY:R U OK? Day
DESCRIPTION:




Thursday 10 September 2026 is R U OK? Day but whether it’s a friend, family member, partner, or colleague , the people around us go through life’s ups and downs every day. That’s why we want everyone to feel confident to check in with the people they care about and Ask R U OK? Any Day.
 
Research  found that those who are regularly asked, 'are you OK?' report increased feelings of wellbeing, and we've learned that  a third of Australians say they've been asking others more often over the past year. That means many of us are already showing up for others in meaningful ways, but when it comes to conversations about how we’re really going, some people are less confident than others. 
 
It’s natural to feel a little hesitant, but the good news is nine in ten Australians report feeling grateful, supported and cared for when someone genuinely asks them if they're OK - and that’s a good reason to give it a go. You might even be having these conversations already without realising.
 
Ask R U OK? Any Day  because a conversation could change a life.
