MSK Workstream

Explore this year's MSK Workstream

Every Age. Every Body.

Earn up to 12 CPD points: 6 points per day

Musculoskeletal (MSK) health is not confined to a particular moment in life or to a specific type of person; it is a universal thread running through every human story and every stage of life.

Built around the theme “Every Age, Every Body,” this workstream acknowledges that MSK care is both deeply personal and profoundly communal—shaping how people move, work, connect and participate in their communities.

Led by Dr Amanda Hensman-Crook MBE and Dr Sharon Chan-Braddock, it brings together multidisciplinary voices to explore what genuinely inclusive, person-centred MSK care looks like in practice.

Whether you’re supporting a young person to develop healthy functional movement, helping a working adult manage pain or injury, or enabling an older adult to maintain mobility and independence, the needs of your patients continually evolve throughout their lives. This workstream will help you consider how your clinical approach can evolve with them—becoming more adaptive, preventative and responsive at every stage.

Clinical Expertise Grounded in Real-World Practice

This workstream brings together expert clinicians, educators, researchers and service leaders to share knowledge that is evidence-led and shaped by lived experience. Perspectives span disciplines and settings—from primary care and specialist services to rehabilitation and community programmes.

By combining this expertise, the programme will strengthen collective learning across the MSK profession, challenge established thinking and help clinicians deliver more informed, equitable and person-centred care for every age and every body.

A Conference for Neighbourhoods and Communities

MSK health shapes how people live, move, and connect, and strong MSK support strengthens whole communities. “Every Age, Every Body” champions the idea that high‑quality MSK care belongs everywhere: in clinics, neighbourhoods, and the everyday places people live and grow.

By linking clinical expertise with community resources, like local groups, exercise programmes, peer support, and voluntary services, we create care that is preventative, accessible, inclusive, and sustainable.

This theme is also a commitment to equity: ensuring everyone, regardless of age, ability, or background, has the opportunity to stay active, engaged, and well. The conference brings together clinical insight and community innovation to build MSK solutions that truly meet people where they are.

A Shared Vision Forward

‘Every Age, Every Body’ is more than a theme- it's a commitment.
A commitment to providing clinicians with robust, practical knowledge; to connecting care systems with communities; and to supporting healthier, more resilient lives across all ages.

MSK health is a cornerstone of wellbeing. We recognise that when we strengthen MSK care, we strengthen individuals, and when we strengthen individuals, we strengthen communities.
