Inspiration
This project became personal when one teammate's stepfather had a serious fall at age 65. Falls aren't just statistics, they strip independence and confidence, especially for vulnerable older adults facing isolation and inadequate support.
Research revealed a critical gap: existing programmes target active seniors, ignoring those with early frailty who need accessible, stigma-free strength training.
What We Built
Fall Proof delivers community-based strength sessions for adults 65+ blending exercises with social connection. Participants track simple metrics (grip strength, sit-to-stand, walking loops) for personalized progress and healthcare data.
How We Built It
One teammate proposed the core idea and set up a shared pitch deck for real-time collaboration. The team researched Singapore/UK programmes, mapped gaps, created personas, revenue models, and a phased rollout, from pilots to national licensing.
Challenges Faced
Designing for non-tech-savvy seniors while enabling scalable data collection. Balancing clinical rigor with welcoming community feel to avoid intimidating users.
What We Learned
Falls are social problems too; loneliness compounds physical risk. Personas kept decisions user-centered.
