Around 10% fewer elderly people who fall in nursing homes across Swansea and Neath Port Talbot are being taken to hospital by ambulance, thanks to better staff education. More sbuhb.nhs.wales/news/swansea…

Dance to Health is a full falls prevention programme using movement to music as a medium - individuals can self refer and there is so much fun to be had! @SwanseabayNHS @SBUHBOT dancetohealth.org

Discover the joy of movement! Engaging in activities you enjoy can make staying active in older age a fun and rewarding experience. #ReconditioningSwanseaBay #ACTIVEAugust
