Gloria Jean’s Coffees backs Gavin Larkin’s R U Okay? Day

Coffee house brand Gloria Jean’s has today announced its support of R U Okay? Day, the suicide prevention initiative founded by former CEO of The Brand Shop Gavin Larkin.   

From today for a month all Gloria Jean’s stores around Australia will host a series of in-store promotions and events providing support and information for those at risk and also raising awareness of the day.

Such activity will include the distribution of information cards to customers on Thursday – the official R U Okay? Day.

Nabi Saleh, executive chairman of Gloria Jean’s Coffees International said: “We urge all Australians to start a conversation and connect with their family, friends, colleagues and loved ones. A simple conversation over a coffee, can in fact help to change a life.”

Founder Gavin Larkin was the focus of the ABC’s Australian Story last night.
