The General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) regulates the practice of osteopathy in the United Kingdom. It operates as a charity registered in England and Wales, with authority to register practitioners and to remove those deemed unfit to practise. It maintains the national Register of osteopaths, sets professional standards and conduct, and oversees education quality and ongoing professional development. Its core stakeholders include osteopaths who must be on the Register to practise, patients who may raise concerns about care, and educational bodies responsible for training osteopaths. Based in London, England, the GOsC operates within the public-safety regulatory framework for health professions. In 2026, the regulator helped publish a Shared Update on Regulation of Advanced Levels of Practice in collaboration with the Health and Care Professions Council.
