R U OK? Day this year was next-level.
In a world-first, Richard Branson had Virgin Australia staff across the country (some 10,000 of them) wearing a splash of yellow with their staple red and purple uniforms in support. It was also great catching up with some of the RUOK? family and meeting Virgin Australia CEO, Paul Scurrah.
As always, it’s important to remember that the spirit behind this national day of action isn’t just reserved for once a year. If you feel something’s not quite right with someone you know, trust your gut, no matter what day it is. Check up on them and ask if they’re OK.
Never underestimate the power a simple, genuine conversation can have x
