About us
Who we are
The Osteopathic Foundation (oF) is a growing and ambitions charitable trust dedicated to advancing osteopathic practice for the benefit of the public. We do this by funding education and research, promoting productive relationships both within and outside the profession. In the main this is achieved through the provision of research grants. We also support undergraduate students who are struggling to complete their degree for financial reasons by providing interest free bridging loans.
Founded originally some forty years ago as the Osteopathic Education Foundation, the oF now works under the stewardship of the Institute of Osteopathy, the professional association for UK osteopaths.
