R U OK? Day ‘Locals Know Best’ Workshop
30 September @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
Working It Out is hosting the R U OK? Day folks to facilitate a FREE 90 minute workshop for anyone in the community who wishes to learn how to have an R U OK? conversation with someone they might be concerned about.
These workshops have been named ‘Locals Know Best’ because community members are the experts about where they live, learn, work and play and what is going to be most helpful to them.
We will discuss understanding how to spot the signs of struggle, walk through how to have a conversation that can support someone who may be struggling and how to considerately encourage next steps.
The R U OK? Facilitators will also seek feedback on their brand and resources to inform how they might be able to improve it.
This is an opportunity to gain a little bit of knowledge around these, sometimes difficult conversations.
When: Monday 30th September, 2:00-3:30pm.
Where: WIO Office, 29 Wilson Street, Burnie
Spaces are limited, so please RSVP to Garry via email or SMS (garry@workingitout.org.au / 0455 031 262) – and please indicate any dietary requirements (we will have some afternoon tea).
