The Love your Liver campaign is a national awareness initiative by a national charity, the British Liver Trust. We each have responsibility for our own health, follow the steps below to achieve a healthier liver.

Give your liver a break, replace alcohol with a non-alcoholic alternative 3 days a week - and your liver will love you for ever

Keep off alcohol for
2 to 3 days in a row.

Replace that drive or bus ride with a short walk or cycle ride. Get off the bus a stop early. Walk to the station. Take the stairs not the lift. Swim or take up a sport. You'll feel better and the exercise will shift accumulated fat from your liver in a way that dieting can't! It'll give your liver a new lease of life.

Take more exercise and stay fit.

Carrying too much weight or eating a diet with too much sugar and fat will affect the way your liver works. Cut down on sweets, snacks and fizzy drinks and foods that are high in fat. Replace them with more fresh fruit and vegetables, 5-7 a day if you can! Your liver will be over the moon!

Cut down on sugar
and fat.

Just staying off alcohol for two to three days at a time, avoiding fatty foods and taking regular exercise are great ways to Love Your Liver. Use this website to discover more about our Love Your Liver campaign. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook for liver facts, tips and myth busters and to support the LYL campaign.

The British Liver Trust is a UK charity for adults with liver conditions. The charity provides information, support and advice to help people.

Every year, the LYL campaign takes to the road to offer the public the opportunity to attend a pop-up clinic to get their liver health assessed and tested if necessary, also to learn about ways they can improve the health of their liver.

We have now completed the Love Your Liver Roadshow 2013 which has been a great success. Thank you to all of the voluntary medical teams that supported us, we visited 8 locations in January and spoke to hundreds of people across the country.

We would love to visit more places but as we are reliant on voluntary donations and do not receive any government funding we have to stay within our limited resources. Voluntary donations are needed to fund our liver awareness work, patient support services and vital research.

Over the next few months, as part of the planning process for the LYL Roadshow 2014, we will be looking at ways that we can improve the tour, participant experience and how we reach out to new communities. If you are a medical health professional or a British Liver Trust supporter and would like to help us on the LYL Roadshow 2014 please email or call us on 01425 481320 to register your interest.

Would you like to support our Love Your Liver awareness campaign?

Help us spread the word about liver health across the UK by holding an awareness day, week or month at work or in within your community. By holding a LYL awareness event you are not only helping people understand how amazing their liver is but letting them know how they can take care of it.

The funds raised will help us to continue funding research, provide vital support services and continue with public awareness.

About the British Liver Trust

January is Love Your Liver Month, and the Love Your Liver campaign is a national awareness initiative about liver health coordinated by the British Liver Trust - the UK charity for adults with liver conditions.

The Love Your Liver Roadshow embarks on an annual national tour of the UK each January, offering pop-up liver health clinics to get your liver health assessed and tested if necessary.

The British Liver Trust assessed the liver health of more than 300 people in 5 days in January 2012. Over a quarter (28%) of people assessed were told to visit their GP and request a subsequent Liver Function Test.

The LYL Roadshow is sponsored by FibroScan which is a non-invasive imaging scan that evaluates the degree of liver stiffness, or scarring, known as fibrosis.

The LYL campaign brings together all aspects of maintaining a healthy liver and is delighted to have teamed up with Eisberg alcohol free wine and Morrisons supermarkets to deliver the LYL 2013 Roadshow.

The British Liver Trust is a national charity that funds medical research, provides vital support for those living with a liver condition and raises public awareness to prevent liver disease www.britishlivertrust.org.uk
