Falls Prevention Week

Next week is Falls Prevention Week, an important time to raise awareness of the fantastic programme of community awareness sessions delivered by Age Friendly Salford. These sessions are not only a vital part of Falls Prevention Week, they also form a key strand of our wider Health and Active campaign running throughout September and October, including Bone and Joint Health National Action Week and UK Malnutrition and Hydration Week, all of which address critical issues affecting older adults across our city. 

They aim to empower individuals with knowledge, encourage healthier lifestyles, and foster safer, more supportive communities. Your help in sharing this information and encouraging attendance is essential to making a meaningful impact.
