Each day during Women’s Health Week, our UQ Respect Ambassadors will be handing out Flourish Cards which contain messages of positivity and empowerment from our UQ Respect Ambassadors. If you receive one of these cards, we hope it brightens your day!

We are also holding an activity hub each day where you can create your own Flourish Card to empower another UQ student or staff member. To participate in this activity, you will find us at Campbell Place on Monday, Tuesday and Friday and at Student Central on Wednesday and Thursday.
