Move your body workshop

Southcare is hosting a brand new “Move your body” workshop on Wednesday 20 March 2024 and we would love you to attend. 

Run by the fabulous team at Injury Matters, this free workshop will show you how to build your strength and improve your balance by moving your body. Keeping active and agile is one of the best ways to prevent falls.  

Join us and discover:  

• The importance of balance and leg strength 
• The factors that can affect balance and leg strength 
• Exercises that you can do to challenge your balance and improve your leg strength 
• The health professionals that can help you build your balance and strengthen your legs 

 Coinciding with International Day of Happiness, this is a great opportunity to move, connect and be happy!  

As we age, our strength and balance declines but doesn’t have to. Being unwell, less active, and muscle, bone and joint weakness can all impact your strength and
balance as we get older. Staying active and doing exercises which strengthen our legs and challenge our balance daily will prevent balance declining and help
keep you strong.

Good balance and strong legs prevent slips, trips and falls. You use your strength and balance daily for everyday activities like walking, getting out of chairs and playing with your grandkids. Trips can happen, but improving your strength and balance helps you to react safely and avoid a fall
