AESOP Company Information
General information
Dance to Health responds to the issue of older people’s falls. Falls are traumatic for older people and cost the NHS £2.3 billion per year. On top of this current falls prevention exercise programmes face challenges: patchy provision; older people’s low take-up and adherence; the lack of maintenance classes which means that gains are lost and investment is wasted; a minority of current services are evidence-based and last the required six months.
Dance to Health uses the two evidence-based falls prevention programmes, Otago and FaME and further to successful pilots in 2016, is now being rolled out in six regions in England and Wales with the support of six health partners.
Dance to Health is being developed as a sustainable social enterprise managed by Aesop Arts and Society working in partnership with Birmingham Royal Ballet, Yorkshire Dance, Cheshire Dance, South East Dance, National Dance Company Wales and Dance East.
Dance to Health is supported by Big Lottery Fund, Nesta, Esmee Fairbairn Foundation, Peter Sowerby Charitable Foundation, Rank Foundation and Ministry of Defence Aged Veterans Fund.
