**Voluntary role**

**We offer flexibility to support volunteers to participate at a time and in a way that suits availability, interests, skills, experience and lifestyle.**

The Falls and Fragility Fracture Audit Programme (FFFAP) is a national clinical audit run by the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) and commissioned by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership on behalf of NHS England and the Welsh Government. Our work aims to improve the care that patients with fragility fractures receive in hospital and after discharge and to reduce inpatient falls. At present, 300,000 fragility fractures occur each year in the UK including 70,000 hip fractures. 2,006 of these are suffered by hospital inpatients.

You can find out more about our work on the FFFAP website.

**About the Patient and Carer Panel**

The Panel is a group of volunteers who support the work of the Programme by providing the views of patients and carers and make sure that the Programme continues to put patients and carers at the heart of the programme. The Panel have also supported the work of the Programme by co-producing several resources for patients, carers and the public, in partnership with RCP staff and the Programme’s multi-disciplinary group of clinicians. Panel members also review and edit our reports to make sure that they are accessible to as wide an audience as possible.

Panel members also take part in Programme webinars and presentations, for which full support and training is available.

- Develop resources tailored to the needs of patients and carers and the public.
