Introduction

Welcome to STEP Leeds, a friendly resource for older adults who want to stay independent, safe and active in their own homes, and for the families who help them.

We cover the practical things that make daily life easier and steadier: making your home safer, staying on your feet, keeping gently active, eating and drinking well, and knowing when to ask for help.

Everything here is written in plain language, with respect for older readers. It is friendly general information, not medical advice, and we will always point you to your doctor or another professional when that is the right thing to do.
