Simington and others....
Over
60 UBMBC members took part in the event, which was sponsored by Connect

R
U OK? is an Australian non-profit suicide prevention organisation,
founded by advertiser Gavin Larkin in 2009. It revolves around the
slogan "R U OK?" and advocates for people to have conversations with
others. The organisation holds a dedicated R U OK?
As
well as raising awareness of Men's mental health issues, the attendees
raised about $1,200 for the RU OK? Charity and also had a lot of fun, as
the following photos will attest to.
Many thanks to everyone involved in this very important day....
