This talk will focus on why falls happen, the common risk factors and what can be done to reduce the likelihood of falling. We will cover the importance of strength, balance, mobility, and staying active, as well as practical tips to improve safety at home and in everyday life. The session will also discuss how exercise and simple lifestyle changes can help maintain independence, confidence, and overall wellbeing
