Big Fun Run Edinburgh 2017 · 30 July 2017 ·

A medical research charity, to improve treatment of Liver Disease. Our focus is raising funds necessary for the development of a Bio-Artificial Liver Machine - which will prove as important in liver disease, as kidney dialysis, for kidney failure. We are striving, so everyone has a 'Liver for Life'.

Story

There are 650mn people affected by the liver disease globally. A majority of those come from non-alcoholic causes. However, we only think about alcoholic liver disease. Having experienced the impact of poor liver health in my family, I want to do what I can to help transform liver health.

I got to know The Liver Group Charity through work. Based at Royal Free Hospital in London, they are doing some fantastic research work. They are working towards building a bio-artificial liver. Follow this link if you are interested to know more about the project https://goo.gl/NPBk45.

Help me raise money to make this project a reality. They are making progress every day, and any donation will be highly appreciated.

Those of you know me well, know that running isn't one of my strong suits. I'll complain all my way around the 5k course, but I promise to finish it.
