Bone health is vital for aging well, maintaining independence and preventing frailty. There are many lifestyle factors that impact the health of your bones and there are evidence based ways to improve your bone strength. Why not take this questionnaire and see what your risk is. If you want support to prevent osteoporosis or improve bone density I can work with you to create you a personalised bone health plan

Start 2026 by looking after your bones!

Osteoporosis is a condition where your bones lose strength, making you more likely to break a bone. It affects 1 in 2 women and 1 in 5 men over 50 - a reminder that everyone should check their bone health.

Take the Great British Bone Check today and get your personalised bone health results in less than 3 minutes.

Early awareness can help you protect you bones and reduce your chance of broken bones. It’s never too early - or too let- to start looking after your bones.

Already diagnosed? We have plenty of information and support here: https://theros.org.uk/

Once a month I volunteer for a charity called Reengage in Melton Mowbray. We collect socially isolated older adults from their homes and take them to an organised afternoon tea on the last Sunday of the month for a couple of hours. Unfortunately we are running low on drivers. If there are any local people who would enjoy chatting to some older people, having lovely cake and tea and some entertainment Reengage would be interested to here from you. If you want more information about what it entails feel free to send me a pm.

This wintery icy weather can induce anxiety in a lot of people as getting out and about suddenly seems more risky.

Falling, especially if you have bone fragility can be a real concern.
