National earned media strategy to get Australia talking, because one conversation can change a life.

Four people standing together in a TV studio, smiling at the camera. Two women are wearing yellow T-shirts with the word 'RUOK?' on them, and two older adults are dressed more formally.
Three people sitting on a couch in a television studio with a city skyline backdrop, likely during a morning show.
Three people standing behind a table with various food ingredients in a bright studio setting with a "Sunrise" logo in the background. The man on the left is in a suit, the man in the middle in a dark polo, and the woman on the right in a green dress. The text overlay reads "R U OK? Day Sandwiches."

R U OK? exists to encourage Australians to check in on one another. 

Romina Favero PR was engaged to lead tier 1 media strategy and engagement for the country’s largest day of national action, R U OK?Day in 2025 and 2026.

SCOPE

  1. Built the PR strategy for national and statewide news outlets

  2. Pitched top-tier TV, radio, print and digital, as well as regional, industry and multicultural media

  3. Briefed spokespeople for media interviews and opportunities

  4. Managed journalist and producer relationships to secure coverage

RESULTS

R U OK?’s most visible year in 2025 - and on track to beat it for 2026. Millions reached, coverage in nearly every media outlet around the country, and a call to action that stuck: ask R U OK? any day.
