Plymouth Evidence Based Strength and Balance Classes

Plymouth FaME (Falls Management Exercise) group programme

FaME (falls management exercise) is led by our team of specialist exercise professionals. Informed by research evidence the team guide you through a personalised programme (held in small groups in your community). The programme is designed to improve your balance and reactions, your movement, stamina and strength. This all helps reduce the likelihood of a fall, whilst helping everyday activities become easier and less effortful so that you can continue doing the things you enjoy.

Although you can feel immediate benefits from adding extra movement to your days and weeks, for best outcomes and to do all you can to reduce the likelihood of a fall, we offer FaME for up to 24 weeks. We enjoy a chat and occasional humour but are dedicated to supporting everyone to succeed and progress in their own time. FaME may offer some seated options, but its focus is in helping you feel more confident on your feet, whilst also learning or maintaining the skill to get up from the floor. It’s good to know you can if you needed to.

Most importantly FaME is designed to help you ‘get up, stay up and live your best life’.

If FaME sounds like it could be for you and you would like to find out more then call The Wellbeing Hub on: 01752 437177.
