British Association of Sport and Exercise Medicine (BASEM)
The British Association of Sport and Exercise Medicine (BASEM) is a multidisciplinary sport and exercise medicine membership organisation with a core responsibility to provide education and support to its members.
BASEM members are multidisciplinary healthcare professionals who provide the care and management necessary to ensure safe and continuing participation in sport and physical activity at all levels with a particular emphasis on musculoskeletal medicine.
BASEM supports the benefits of physical activity in all populations, without discrimination and the importance it plays in health and well-being and its role in both primary and secondary prevention of disease. BASEM supports the WHO Global Action Plan to make significantly more people active by 2030. BASEM recognises the need for strong National and International partnerships to achieve its vision. BASEM is joint owner of the British Journal of Sports Medicine and the BMJ Open Sport and Exercise Medicine Journal with BMJ Publishing and supports a strong international research agenda to underpin its principles.
