黑料社

As we step into 2025, the 黑料社 (ROS) is very pleased to unveil our objectives and priorities for the year ahead. Building on three years of progress under our Breaking the Silence strategy, we鈥檙e scaling up our mission to transform bone health and ensure a better future for the millions of people affected by osteoporosis. This pivotal year will see us drive universal access to life-saving Fracture Liaison Services (FLS), launch The Great British Bone Check, and introduce innovative support services to empower individuals with osteoporosis.

鈥淚n the fourth year of our strategy, we鈥檒l scale up our work to get early diagnosis services (Fracture Liaison Services) set up across the four nations, building on Government pledges for universal coverage. This is just the start, and our world-leading research agenda will make the case for a National Screening Programme to prevent the first fracture too in future. As we gear up for our 40th anniversary, we鈥檒l launch The Great British Bone Check, our biggest ever public-facing campaign, as well as two brand new support services.

This work is only possible thanks to the generosity of our members and supporters. We pledge to leave no stone unturned in tackling osteoporosis head-on and putting it at the top of the health agenda, so lives can be changed for the better鈥�.

Corporate objectives and measures for 2025
