Why we need your support
There are over 100 different types of liver disease, estimated to affect up to two million adults in the UK. However, many more cases of liver disease remain undiagnosed.
Liver disease is one of the five most serious health problems in the UK and it is estimated that in the next six to ten years the need for liver transplants will increase by 500%. However, research in this area as well as treatment and support for those who face the challenges of liver disease are severely under-resourced.
By choosing to support the British Liver Trust today you can help us to fight liver disease.
Your support will help us to provide vital services to people who need them so much. Your donation could:
-
help us to run a Helpline for people who have any questions or concerns about liver disease
-
help us to co-ordinate liver patient support groups across the country
-
help us to produce publications about liver disease for patients and healthcare professionals
-
help us to stop liver disease in its tracks by educating the public about ways that liver disease can be prevented
-
help fund research into causes of and treatments for liver disease.
The British Liver Trust is the only national charity that offers support and information for adults with all forms of liver disease. We are a charitable organisation and as such, we rely on the support of people like you.
There is so much more we need to do so please help and contact us now.
