Today marks R U OK? Day. ⭐️
Showing their support for this initiative, team members at Central wore yellow clothing and accessories, the colour used to symbolise hope.
This year’s theme, ‘Ask R U Ok? Any Day’, highlights the importance of checking in every day, normalising regular and meaningful chats about mental health and wellbeing.
At Warrigal, we are committed to fostering a supportive environment built on empathy and genuine care. As part of this commitment to prioritise the mental health of staff and those in our care, our Support Services Team have been participating in a wellness series, consisting of various interactive seminars.
Last week, the team received valuable insights from Dan Hunt, co-founder of the Mental Health Movement, engaging in the ‘Check In’ and ‘Power of Story’ sessions. This seminar highlighted the importance of not only checking in with others but also checking in with yourself, providing effective strategies to do this. This presentation, along with others in the series, have better equipped the team, providing them with useful tools and a support network as they navigate their personal mental health journeys.
Today is an important reminder to check in with your loved ones, coworkers, and friends. Simply asking ‘Are you ok?’ can make all the difference to someone. 💛
