These guidelines were developed by the World Falls Task Force, which assembled 96 multidisciplinary experts from 39 countries across 5 continents, with representation from 36 scientific and academic societies, including the BGS. 

These resources have been developed to help keep older people safe at home by reducing deconditioning and falls hazards, supporting people with conditions such as dementia or Parkinson's, and improving overall wellbeing to help to keep their minds and bodies active.

The 20th International Conference on Falls and Postural Stability was held on 20 September 2019 in London.

This standard has been jointly produced by the British Orthopaedic Association (BOA), the British Geriatrics Society (BGS) and other organisations.

Featuring coverage from the BGS Spring Meeting 2019, ageing and the healthy brain, the importance of research, and how Malaysia is helping to raise awareness of falls.
