Strength and Balance classes available in Counties Manukau
After a fall last year, South Auckland local Frank Toru started tai chi classes to build his strength and balance. Check out his story in the link below.
People over 65, have a one in three chances of falling, and between 10% and 20% of these falls result in an injury such as a hip fracture and often a long recovery after a stay in hospital. A hip fracture for someone aged 80 or over is associated with a 33% chance of entering residential care, and a 20% chance of dying within 12 months.
There's some awesome Community Group Strength and Balance classes in the Counties Manukau to reduce falls and fractures, and support older people to 'Live Stronger for Longer'.
