Osteoporosis Australia is a national charity. Our aim is to reduce the number of fractures in Australia and strive for healthy bones for all Australians. Osteoporosis is a serious disease where bones become brittle and can fracture easily. Preventing fractures is vitally important, both in terms of an individual's quality of life and cost to the healthcare system. Osteoporosis Australia works hard to inform the community about the risk factors associated with osteoporosis, and the benefits of a healthy lifestyle - like bone-friendly exercise - in maintaining strong bones.
