What is the Start Today Exercise Programme (STEP)?

Together with Wesport, we have developed a homebased exercise programme to increase strength and balance for people who find it difficult to get out and about. It is designed for people who are at risk of falls and becoming less active.

One in three people over 65 and half of people over 80 fall every year, and the risk increases as we become older. Research shows simple lifestyle changes prevent falls, make us more independent and improve our quality of life.

If you have not exercised in a while, muscle ache is normal. This is just your muscles working. However, if pain lasts over 24 hours or previous pain is made worse, please stop exercises.
