About the presenter
Trish Lynch has worked as a physiotherapist for nearly 40 years. Through her work she is passionate about working with older people, particularly regarding enabling people to remain living independently with a particular focus on falls prevention.
This passion comes from witnessing the adverse outcome of falls for older people, especially when many falls are preventable. Over the past 8 years, Trish has worked as a part of the Health Promotion Service team in South-Eastern Sydney Local Health District. This role enables her to work in the field of community health and education.
