A Message of Gratitude and Farewell
It is with mixed emotions that we announce the closure of U alright mate? Inc..
What began as a deeply personal mission grew into something far greater than we could have imagined. Founded in memory of Troy Robinson, brother of founder and CEO Cameron Oates, U alright mate? Inc. was created with a simple but powerful purpose: to start conversations, raise awareness, and help people understand that it is okay to ask for help.
Over the years, we have had the privilege of sharing Troy’s story with thousands of people through presentations, workshops, workplace programs, community events, face-to-face training sessions, and online forums. Along the way, we have met incredible individuals, families, organisations, volunteers, supporters, and advocates who believed in our mission and helped bring this dream to life.
While our journey as a charity is coming to an end, the impact created together will continue far beyond the life of the organisation. Every conversation started, every life touched, every person who felt a little less alone, and every individual who found the courage to reach out for support is part of the legacy that will remain.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supported us throughout this journey. Whether you attended an event, volunteered your time, shared our message, donated, partnered with us, or simply listened, thank you. Your support allowed us to honour Troy’s memory and contribute to a cause that remains deeply important.
To those who entrusted us with their stories, challenges, and hopes for a better future, thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey.
Although U alright mate? Inc. is closing its doors, the message that inspired its creation remains as important as ever: check in on the people around you, have the conversation, and never underestimate the impact of a simple question – “U alright mate?”
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of this journey.
“A charity may close, but a message that changes lives never truly ends.”

August 18th, 2018 – This date will be forever etched in my mind, it’s the day my brother Troy took his life.
