Founded by Craig Tidswell, Frailty Fighters, is a movement born from frontline experience and a deep commitment to cultural change in how we support older adults. As a qualified Occupational Therapist and NASM Personal Trainer, Frailty Fighters blends clinical insight with practical strength-based strategies to empower individuals and communities.

The Frailty Fighter vision was forged during my time on the frailty team in emergency healthcare, where I witnessed first hand the devastating impact of hospital overwhelm, deconditioning, poorer outcomes, and rising mortality. These traumatic experiences sparked a bold response — a prevention-first approach that challenges reactive systems and champions proactive care.

Frailty Fighters educates, strengthens, and supports older adults to move more, live better, and thrive in the decade ahead. Our work is rooted in empathy, evidence, and a belief that mobility, connection, and education are the keys to independence and longevity.
