Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Have recently lost my mother in October 2018, I realised that more needs to be done to raise awareness for liver-related illnesses.

I have decided to raise funds for Liver4life. Some facts below which may surprise you.

• Liver disease kills more people every year
• In 2015 to 2017, there were 26,265 premature deaths due to liver disease in England – 36 deaths a day. 
• Liver disease is almost entirely preventable with the major risk factors: alcohol, obesity and hepatitis B and C accounting for up to 90% of cases.
• In England, 7 people a week die due to non-alcohol related fatty liver disease (774 people died between 2015–2017).  
• There are over 100 liver conditions – but generally speaking, the majority are either lifestyle related or hereditary.
• Liver4Life is dedicated to supporting any person affected by a liver condition in the UK. 
  
• L4L offers support and education, as well as undertaking campaigns on behalf of people with a liver condition, to improve their care, their treatment and their support services.
• L4L recognises the importance of preventing liver disease and the early detection of a liver condition and liver cancer in the UK.
• Their absolute priority is supporting liver patients in the UK.
