Staying Steady (falls prevention programme)

Staying Steady is a FREE 20-week programme designed to help over 50s improve their strength, balance, and confidence. To participate, 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

Those who take part 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.

Classes start every autumn and spring and are held in various locations across Gateshead.  October 2024 sessions are being held in Deckham, Blaydon, Low Fell, Whickham, Ryton, and Dunston.  For more information or to reserve your place, please ring 0191 438 1721.
