We all strive to maintain our health, avoid injuries, and live independently in our homes for as long as possible. However, falls remain one of the leading causes of injury and fatality among older adults, with approximately half of these incidents occurring in or around the home.

To address this important issue, Manningham Council, in collaboration with Access Health and Community, are offering a free, one-hour information session.

This session will cover:

why older adults are at risk of falls
how to reduce the risk of falls
how to stay active and independent for longer
where to find help to reduce or manage falls.

This information session is part of our commitment to working towards becoming an Age Friendly City.
