Fragility Fracture Registry (FFR)
The ANZ FFR is a registry that is run in parallel in Australia and New Zealand. Each country has it's own instance of the registry so that data sovereignty is maintained while allowing the benefit of a joint approach to development and reporting.
Governance
Each country is represented at the ANZFFR Management Committee with sub committees existing at the national level.
ANZFFR Management Committee
The ANZ Fragility Fracture Registry has a trans-Tasman steering committee which meets monthly to ensure the projects in Australia and New Zealand stay aligned.
Sub Committees
Each country has it's own sub committees. These include
- Steering Committee - Meeting weekly, this group oversees the day-to-day registry activity including recruitment, development and reporting.
- Fund Raising - In Australia, this committee is responsible for sourcing funds for the ongoing work of the Australian Fragility Fracture Foundation.
- Data Management Committee - responsible for modifying the data
- Research Committee - Reviewing and recommending action on data requests from researchers.

Fragility Fractures in the older population are significant and growing.
Australia has an ageing population where falls and fragility fractures sustained by people over 50 represent a key contributor to increasing demand on the health system.
