A SERIES of events aimed at helping older people to lead safer and healthier lives is to be held in Hartlepool.
Officers from Hartlepool Borough Council have joined forces with the Anchor Trust community development team to offer a range of information on issues such as how to avoid falls in the home, healthy eating and exercise.
Other agencies, including Hartlepool Primary Care Trust and Endeavour Repair Care, will also contribute to the events, which will take place on November 3, 10 and 26.
The events will promote the importance of people eating healthily and monitoring changes in their health and understanding their medication.
There will also be a chance to learn how to stay physically active through gentle chair exercises.
Older people are invited to attend any of the events which will take place next Monday at the day unit of the University Hospital of Hartlepool, from 10am to 3pm; November 10 at Nicholson Way Flatlets, from 10am to 3pm; and on November 26 at Wynyard Road Community Centre, from 10am to 3pm.
