What Lifeline Operators Know About Saving Lives

It's RUOK? Day, the day we turn to our friends, family, colleagues and team mates and ask them whether they're coping alright.

But what if they say no they're not?

We speak to a Lifeline operator to find out what happens when you call, how they can really help you and what you can do if someone around you is not coping.
