Osteoporotic fractures = 2nd biggest blocker of hospital beds! As a country, surely we can join up the dots between the economy, supporting the NHS and overall quality of life, better than this? See daily Mail article below Victoria Atkins Wes Streeting Royal Osteoporosis Society

If there had been greater awareness, perhaps they might have caught me earlier In this week’s Mail on Sunday, Ruth Sunderland shared the stories of five inspirational women who refused to let osteoporosis break them as part of Mail Online’s War on Osteoporosis. dailymail.co.uk/health/article…

Trying my best to not let it break me, but it’s really hard. And the Royal Osteoporosis Society and Ruth Sunderland have no-brainer prevention approaches to OP and nothing is happening with it. Will you create an NHS prevention budget line Wes Streeting?

Have coeliac disease. Had hectic day of meetings and accessing food that is gluten free. Am starving and feeling quite faint. Foolishly thought I’d grab crisps on the late Avanti West Coast 1830 to WBQ. Ha! The shop wont open due to staff shortage. Any solutions Avanti West Coast?



1 in 2 postmenopausal women will have osteoporosis. Most will fracture in their lifetime. Pregnancy Associated Osteoporosis (PAO) is a stark reminder to look after your bones #betterpaocare #WorldOsteoporosisDay Osteoporosis IOF Royal Osteoporosis Society Craig Jones

It's World Osteoporosis Day, and with it comes the opportunity to spread awareness of Pregnancy Associated Osteoporosis (PAO) and the importance of good bone health. Royal Osteoporosis Society Osteoporosis IOF Wes Streeting
