Chatham Council on Aging Offers Program on Avoiding Falls

PITTSBORO and SILER CITY– The Chatham County Council on Aging has scheduled an eight-week program, A Matter of Balance, to help seniors address concerns about falling. According to the Council, people who develop this fear often limit their activities, which can result in physical weakness, making the risk of falling even greater. The program is designed to reduce the fear of falling and increase activity levels among older adults.

Eastern Chatham Senior Center-Class will be held on Wednesdays starting February 11 from 2-4 pm. Classes will be held at the Eastern Chatham Senior Center located at 365 NC Hwy 87 N, Pittsboro. For more information or to register, contact Allison Andrews at (919) 542-4512.

Western Chatham Senior Center-Class will be held on Wednesdays starting February 18 from 10-11:30 am. Classes will be held at the Western Chatham Senior Center located at 112 Village Lake Road in Siler City. For more information or to register contact Marlene Stonecipher at (919) 742-3975.

Class size is limited, so please call to reserve your space.
