RUOK Any Day

R U OK? Day emphasises that every day is the right day to ask ‘are you okay’?

By starting a conversation, you could change a life. If the person says they are not okay, you can follow conversation steps to show them they’re supported and help them find strategies to better manage the load. If they are okay, that person will know you’re someone who cares enough to ask.

This year, R U OK? Day is on Thursday 11 September.

Raising Body Bright Children

LIVE WEBINAR

Support for children's body image! Please share with your community!

Children today are growing up in a world where appearance pressures start far too early. Parents and carers naturally want their children to feel confident and comfortable in their bodies, but it’s not always easy to know how to help.

That’s why Butterfly is inviting parents of primary age children to a live, virtual seminar designed to provide the tools, knowledge, and confidence to nurture a positive body image and a healthy relationship with eating and physical activity, right from the start.

In this practical, engaging session, parents will learn:

How body image develops in primary-age children
Common risk factors for body dissatisfaction and how to reduce them at home
Everyday ways to be a positive role model around eating and physical activity
The importance of the language used around bodies and appearance
How to respond if you notice body image concerns
Where to find help and support if needed.
