For an older person, a fall can cause serious injury, loss of confidence, social isolation and even death. You can help us prevent such falls.

A fall for a younger person is likely to cause severe bruising. A fall for an older person can break bones and take months to heal, leaving them physically restricted and socially isolated.

Dangerous pavements are a major cause of falls in the UK. 24 per cent of pavements in the UK are unfit for use.
