Parties commit to Better Bones

The Royal Osteoporosis Society would like to extend a huge thank you to all their colleagues across ARMA who have supported the Better Bones campaign for universal, quality Fracture Liaison Services (FLS).

The ROS is pleased to share that the Conservative government has recently committed to expand the use of FLS to achieve 100% coverage by 2030. This commitment was reaffirmed in the Conservative Party manifesto (page 42). The Labour party has matched this and Wes Streeting has stated that one of his first acts in government would be to task NHS England with developing a ‘rollout plan’, so every part of the country has access to FLS. The ROS will continue to campaign to ensure these commitments become a reality, but the Society would like to thank you all for helping to get us to this point.
