Hi All,
How did you find out about the Royal Osteoporosis Community? I was told about from the Health Unlock Royal Osteoporosis Community when I went onto Health Unlock site last night & it was informing its members that it will stop moderating & supporting it. Because of this, I decided to join the Royal Osteoporosis Society Community. Before this, I didn’t know that there was one!

I was told about the ROS through a friend of a friend. Best thing I ever did was to join the Society.
Several months later, when I mentioned the ROS to my GP, he said that’s where they learn all about this disease!
It’s about time that GPs promoted the ROS to newly diagnosed patients as there is no NHS literature in our practice waiting room & non with the community physio.
Thank you ROS for being there for us.
Google search following diagnosis
I saw a post on the ROS Facebook page 
I agree with you, I was diagnosed in March 2025, with three spinal compression fractures acured in Jan took few months to diagnosed suffered with a lot of pain, In November 2025 on the off chance I came across ROS it popped on Facebook as I was doing a lot of research to underground my condition, I wasn’t told anything about osteoporosis I was in the dark and felt very lonely, it was God’s Sent to me, I spoke with Louise (nurse) for over an hour she was so caring, compassionate and understanding, GP definitely should advised their patients. I have spoken again with ROS nurse as I had two further fractures, I love the video for healthy bone they definitely provid great service. I will definitely recommend ROS.
I heard through my local osteoporosis meet up group leaders.
