Falls Prevention Awareness Week 19th-25th September

Published on 16 September 2022 08:22 AM

Alongside our growing number of community exercise classes, for those who are concerned about their balance, we are offering a free online (Zoom) introductory 12-week Stay Strong and Steady exercise and information course. The weekly sessions are a combination of seated and standing exercises, which progress over the 12 weeks.

Do not worry if you are a little apprehensive, our amazing tutor will gently guide you through the weekly classes, in a super-friendly and relaxed environment. We can also provide clear instructions on how to access and use Zoom.

Each week, the one-hour session will incorporate:

· Strength and resistance exercises, which are beneficial for bone and joint health, and help to make everyday tasks easier.

· Balance exercises, which will help to reduce your risk of falls and improve posture.

· General information and discussion on staying strong and steady on your feet.

The next course is starting on Wednesday 28 September, 10.00 – 11.00am and takes place online via Zoom.
If you have an email account and a camera on your device, you will be able to participate in the course.  We will also send you a resistance band and a booklet with the exercises.
