NSW Fall Prevention and Healthy Ageing Network

Our vision is to lead the way in fall prevention and other healthy ageing initiatives by harnessing expert knowledge and being collaborative in all we do.

We work closely with researchers, policy makers, health practitioners and community service providers in the development and promotion of healthy ageing services and programs with a focus on preventing falls and fall-related injury.

Our purpose is to support practitioners to improve the lives of older Australians through healthy ageing initiatives with a focus on preventing falls and fall-related injuries.

The Network activities encompass five pillars to healthy ageing:

  • physical activity

  • cognitive activity

  • good nutrition

  • mental health

  • social engagement
