Bone and Joint Week 2022

Lodged by Pam Duncan-Glancy Standard Motion 23 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament acknowledges Bone and Joint Week, which runs from 12 to 20 October 2022; believes that for some people in Scotland there are still inequalities in their musculoskeletal health and in their access to, and experience of, health services; recognises what it sees as the importance of reducing health inequalities in musculoskeletal health; further recognises the importance of Bone and Joint Week in raising awareness of musculoskeletal health, and gives thanks to the work of the National Axial Spondyloarthritis Society (NASS) and its Act on Axial SpA Campaign, which aims to reduce the time to diagnose axial spondyloarthritis from eight and a half years to one year, and raise awareness of the condition.
