Falls Awareness Week events

Falls Awareness Week in Scotland takes place this September.

The campaign aims to raise awareness that falls are largely preventable and not a normal part of aging.

Falkirk Health and Social Care Partnership is highlighting two local events – in Stirling (Wednesday 17 September) and Falkirk (Friday 19 September) – to spread the message and offer support to the community.

The drop-in events are free to attend, without prior registration.

Visit the Health and Social Care Partnership website for full details.
