Sorry Day

Sorry Day wording

Sorry Day 26th May 2022

We are asked to reflect on Australia’s true history on National Sorry Day and commit to playing a role in the healing of the nation. On 26 May each year, we acknowledge Sorry Day to mark the anniversary of the tabling of the Bringing Them Home report in the Australian Parliament in 1997.

The Healing Foundation’s message to all Australians this Sorry Day is strong and simple:
- Commit to ACTION.
- Build on STRENGTHS – of culture, spirit, and our status as First Nations peoples.
- Tell the TRUTH.
- Do no more HARM.
- End RACISM.
