Falls Prevention Awareness Week (21st - 25th September 2026) is a national campaign to raise awareness about the risks of falls and how we can all take steps to prevent them.
This year’s theme is “From Awareness to Action”, to underline the fact that falls are not a normal part of ageing. Most falls can be prevented and older adults have the power to reduce their risk of falling. Maintaining physical activity and boosting fitness levels are a key part of reducing the risk of falls.
In Fife, there are local activities, resources, and support available to help people stay active, independent, and safe.
You can find out more about what is happening in Fife via the Falls Prevention newsletter - Falls Prevention Awareness Week Newsletter
There is also information and support available through the following webpages:
- NHS Fife - Frailty | NHS Fife
- Active Communities Fife - Walk your way to better strength and balance | Active Fife - leisure hub
- Fife Sports and Leisure Trust - Health & Wellbeing: Self Referral - Fife Sports and Leisure Trust
