Joint Action update

The BOA would like to thank everyone who generously donated to our Joint Action Christmas Appeal. With your generosity we have raised over £8,700 for Joint Action, the Orthopaedic Research Appeal of the BOA.

2023 TCS London Marathon

Our amazing team of runners including, Jen Barwell, Alex Chipperfield, Paolo Consigliere, Larne Jones-Whiting, Matt Owen, Satya Pydah, Hasan Rahij, Abhinav Singh, Amol Tambe and Dan Thurston will all be taking on the challenge. Please support our runners by donating at: https://2023tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/ britishorthopaedicassociation/profile

2023 RideLondon-Essex 100

Join us in 2023 by taking part in the Ford RideLondon-Essex 100 on Sunday 28th May 2023 and raise vital funds for Orthopaedic Research.

Ride for #TeamJointAction! We have a number of charity places currently available. If you are an experienced cyclist or someone who would just love the opportunity to take part in this iconic event, please email your interest to jointaction@boa.ac.uk

If you have been lucky enough to secure your own place through the ballot for either the London Marathon or Ride London, we would still love for you to join us and run or ride for Joint Action. You will receive the same support as a charity place participant but there is no fundraising target, we simply ask that you raise as much as you can. All funds raised will support research into musculoskeletal disorders and any and all support is most welcome. Please contact the fundraising team at jointaction@boa.ac.uk to let them know.

North London Tough Mudder

The BOA have pulled together a team of staff members to raise funds for Joint Action and take part in the North London Tough Mudder on Saturday 15th April and are looking for a few more people to join the team. If you are interested, please contact the fundraising team as soon as possible at jointaction@boa.ac.uk
