Oxford Support Group

The Oxford Support Group is a team of volunteers who offer people affected with osteoporosis the chance to meet other people in the area similarly affected, get information, support and ask questions about osteoporosis treatment and care.

This support group regularly holds meetings online or in the Oxford area. Attendees are welcome from anywhere in UK, there is no requirement to live within the city/region to attend these meetings.

Can you help?

We are looking for more helpers to support the group with meetings, raise awareness in the local area and ensure the future of the group. This could be welcoming people to meetings, admin support or helping organise the meeting programme. To find out more and get involved, please get in touch with the group or the ROS Volunteer Engagement Team.
