A Little Movement Can Make a Big Difference!

Staying active isn’t just about exercise — it’s about building confidence, maintaining independence and feeling good!

We were delighted to welcome the lovely Sue Larken from Active and Agile to Elderwood House for our Stay Steady, Stay Active session.

Sue shared some fantastic practical tips and gentle exercises to help improve balance, maintain mobility and reduce the risk of falls.

A huge thank you to Sue and everyone who joined us. It was wonderful to see everyone getting involved and enjoying the session together!
