MidCoast Libraries is recognising R U OK? Day.

September 14 is the national day of action to remind and inspire us to look after each other by asking "Are you OK?"

A CONVERSATION CAN CHANGE A LIFE

R U OK? inspire and empower everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and start a conversation with those in their world who may be struggling with life. You don't need to be an expert to reach out - just a good friend and a great listener. Use these four steps and have a conversation that could change a life:

1. Ask R U OK?

2. Listen

3. Encourage action

4. Check in

Taree Library will host a drop in mindfulness afternoon with games, crosswords and afternoon tea.

Talk to your branch to find out how you can take part!
