23-27 September 2024 is Falls Prevention Awareness Week.
This year’s theme is “From Awareness to Action”, to underline the fact that falls are not a normal part of ageing. Most falls can be prevented and older adults have the power to reduce their risk of falling. Maintaining physical activity and boosting fitness levels are a key part of reducing the risk of falls.
To promote greater awareness and understanding of this, we are running two “Six Steps to Preventing Falls & Koku” community workshops
