Around 10 million adults and 12,000 children, have a musculoskeletal condition in England today. The Joint Action appeal by the British Orthopaedic Association (BOA) aims to help patients by raising funds for research to improve orthopaedic treatment with the potential to improve the quality of life of those who suffer from arthritis, bone cancer and other adult or paediatric conditions, or to those who have endured a major trauma. We aim to Keep People Mobile.
