SIP WITH ME. LET'S TALK.

hello • 10 June 2020

R U OK? are encouraging Australians to share a cuppa and start a conversation, with the launch of Sip with Me, Let’s Talk, knowing this simple action can change a life.

In the words of R U OK? Founder, Gavin Larkin “In the time it takes to have a cuppa you could start a conversation that could change a life.” Just like a meaningful conversation, tea takes a good 2-3 minutes to get the full flavour so let it brew.

You’re invited to join us online as we get the conversation flowing and share a cup of tea.
