Every year, Help the Aged holds National Falls Awareness Day to raise awareness of the dangers of falls and how to prevent them.

Events are held up and down the country with activities ranging from walking stick MOTs to dance performances.

National Falls Awareness Day was started four years ago, and is going from strength to strength.

The theme for 2008 was 'Stepping out', with a focus on identifying hazards in your local environment.
