Because your natter matters

RESOURCES TO HELP YOU CONNECT WITH SENIORS

This practical conversation guide contains tips to help you ask, 'are you OK?', and lend support to senior Australians in your world every day of the year. When we genuinely ask R U OK? and are prepared to talk to them about how they’re feeling and what’s going on in their life, we can help someone who might be struggling, long before they’re in crisis.


The Staying Connected Activity Book includes games, puzzles, quizzes with personal stories and conversation tips to help senior Australians feel more connected and supported. Download and enjoy together over a genuine conversation with a senior Australian in your world.


The poster provides connection tips, ideas and activities to help promote meaningful conversations with seniors. We have translated the poster, and other seniors resources into five languages: Simplified Chinese, Arabic, Greek, Korean and Vietnamese. You can access these resources here.


Printed copies of the Conversation Guide and Activity Book are also available at the R U OK? Merchandise Store.
