We’ve continued our #HealthyJoints journey this week with more exclusive content for you to read, watch and engage with on MyFFC.
We brought your the latest in our series of fortnightly exercise tutorials, a guide to accessing welfare support if you’re living with a long-term joint or musculoskeletal condition, or recovering from an injury, and there’s also a step-by-step video to practice some balancing exercises at home.
You can find all of our exclusive content on MyFFC by registering below and joining our Healthy Joints Group, or by searching for #healthyjoints.
Join MyFFC to start your healthy joints journey
Here are some of the highlights from week seven:
Our Welfare Services Lead, Carrie Pearce, shared some of the support you can access to help with home adaptations and finances if your mobility is restricted, from exploring funding and grants to explaining all you need to know about the Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) and Personal Independence Payment (PIP).
We demonstrated a few simple techniques you can try at home to improve your balance in an exclusive video too.
Why not give them a go if you feel they’d benefit you? Let us know how you get on in MyFFC!
