Staying Steady (by referral)

Are you feeling a bit unsteady on your feet?

Are you worried you won't be able to get up if you have a fall?

Have you stopped going out and about because you've lost confidence?

Staying Steady is our FREE Falls Management Exercise (FaME) course designed to improve your strength, balance, confidence, and to prevent and manage falls. Those who complete our Staying Steady programme show measurable improvements in their physical health, feel more confident, and tell us they're able to take more active roles in their families and communities. Most (over 90%) graduate on to other community-based exercise programmes.

Classes begin every April and October and are held in various venues around Gateshead.  To take part, you must be:

• in control of any long-term health conditions
• able to mobilise independently (with up to two sticks)
• capable of standing exercise for a minimum of 5 minutes
• able to make your own way to the classes
