We love this road sign depicting older people crossing the road! Sadly it won’t be replacing the existing road sign that shows two hunched figures to indicate old age. It’s interesting to think how stereotypes such as these might actually affect our sense of how our bodies age. At Keith James Physiotherapy we know that bodies can stay strong and flexible throughout life - if small investments are made along the way. Dealing with aches, pains and injuries in a timely way can help to keep you fit and mobile. Understanding how to maintain good posture and muscle tone helps us to keep doing the things we love for longer. We don’t have to become hunched old people - we can be the couple dancing their way across the road sign in the picture!

A road sign design competition has been launched to challenge ageist stereotypes, which can become self-fulfilling prophecies"I love that Keith and his team always do a great job of, quite literally, getting me back on my bike as soon as possible!"
