Membership

Membership of ISPO  is open to all individual professionals, associations, organizations, and institutions with a bona fide interest in prosthetics, orthotics, wheelchairs, assistive devices, rehabilitation engineering and related subjects, who support its missions and goals.  As a member of ISPO, you make a commitment to make the world a place where all persons with physical disabilities have equal opportunity for full participation in society.

ISPO UK Membership

The ISPO UK Member Society is affiliated to ISPO International.  When you join the ISPO UK Member Society, you automatically join ISPO International.   Within the ISPO UK Member Society we offer a calendar of events specifically for those members based in the United Kingdom.  This is in addition to all the wider member benefits you receive from being part of the ISPO International family.  For this reason, our membership subscription rates are adjusted to cover administration costs both here in the United Kingdom and also at ISPO International HQ.

We are actively seeking new members and student members to join ISPO UK to contribute to and participate in our activities and events. As an international multidisciplinary society we strongly encourage and welcome membership from all professions and disciplines across the rehabilitation community. And as a member of ISPO UK you automatically become part of the ISPO global community spanning in excess of 100 countries with 3,300 members.
