Paignton Community Hub welcomed local residents to a Falls and Frailty Prevention event, offering practical advice and support to help people live safely, confidently and independently.
Hosted in collaboration with Healthwatch Torbay, the event gave visitors the chance to speak with local professionals, take part in exercise demonstrations, explore practical aids and adaptations, and access expert advice and carers’ support.
The event was well attended, with a strong turnout from local people and partners. Conversations throughout the day highlighted how important it is for residents to be able to access clear, practical guidance in a familiar community setting.
The event also showed the value of bringing different organisations together in one place, making it easier for people to ask questions, find out what support is available, and feel more reassured about staying safe and well at home.
Paignton Community Hub would like to thank everyone who attended, as well as the professionals, partners and volunteers who gave their time and expertise to make the event welcoming, useful and informative.
The Hub looks forward to holding more community events in the future, helping local people connect with support, information and advice close to home.
