People living with osteoporosis, other people interested in this issue and experts are being asked to submit written evidence of their experience with GPs, nurses and pharmacists to the inquiry.

After reviewing the written evidence, the APPG will make recommendations to Government, the NHS and other public bodies on how to improve care for people with osteoporosis. This will be published as a policy report later this year. 

If you have your own lived experience of osteoporosis, or you wish to submit evidence on behalf of someone with the condition, you can do so here APPG Primary Care Survey.

You can also submit written evidence by emailing appg@theros.org.uk or in writing to: Primary Care Inquiry, Royal Osteoporosis Society, Camerton, Bath, BA2 0PJ.
