Story

I am running Edinburgh half marathon on 27th May to raise money for British liver trust and to spread awareness of organ donation. The marathon will be just under 6 months after I underwent an operation to have the left lobe of my liver removed, which was transplanted into a little girl. For many, life saving transplants like this are their only option. There are around 7000 people in the UK currently waiting for an organ transplant and about 500 of these are in need of a liver. 

Last year, nearly 500 people died waiting for an organ transplant - more than 1 person every day. British liver trust is supporting research which is reducing the number of people on the transplant list and offering support to those who find themselves suffering from liver disease. 

Over 90% of liver disease is preventable and it is the third largest cause of premature death in the UK. With your support British liver trust is working to change these figures and improve the lives of thousands of people across the country.

Please take the time to sign up to be an organ donor today, it takes less than 2 minutes and you could be saving the lives of up to 8 people, and improving the lives of up to 50.
