These self-help guides are full of practical tips to make everyday living easier for you or someone you care for.
Staying mobile as we age is vital for independence, confidence, and wellbeing. This guide explores simple fall-prevention tips, mobility aids like sticks, frames, scooters and stair lifts, plus practical home adaptations to keep you active, safe, and living life on your own terms.
