Active Ageing Australia is dedicated to supporting older Australians to stay active and independent.
Evidence tells us that physical activity is medicine for older adults. Improved physical abilities delay or eliminate the onset of disability, dependence, chronic disease and prevent falls.
We believe that older adults deserve to know they have the ability to change their health and independence - and know how to do this. We also believe that the wider community and workforce needs to have the knowledge and skills to support healthy active ageing.
Staying physically active is the most important thing older adults can do to stay fit and independent. Research shows that health can be improved and the risk of falling reduced by doing moderate physical activity for at least 30 minutes on most days of the week, and by incorporating balance and leg strength exercises into the daily routine.
Just 30 minutes of physical activity a day can help you to:
Stay socially connected
Remain independent
Improve balance and prevent falls
Feel happier and more relaxed
Prevent or control chronic conditions, like Type 2 diabetes and heart disease
Maintain strong muscles and bones
Keep your brain active and improve memory
