Recently we held a Falls Prevention Workshop in collaboration with Asian Family Services at the Watyarnprateep Buddhist Temple in Kelston. This was the first time we had been invited to a temple to share our community outreach work and it was an honour to have this opportunity to talk to and engage with the Thai senior community members. One attendee commented that she found the strength & balance exercises 'very useful and can practice at home'.
