Healthy Liver Events

Started by: jo anne (34722) 

Mon 14th Nov, 10am - 4pm, at HealthyRoutes, 8-10 Crompton St, Wigan WN1 1YP (Link)

A drop-in screening session to assess your risk of liver disease. No need to book.

The quick test helps to reveal factors in your life which could be changed to help reduce the risk of serious conditions such as viral hepatitis and fatty liver disease.

Fibroscans (non-invasive liver scans) will also be available on a first come, first served basis.



The HealthyRoutes service can support people to quit smoking, drink less, be more active and eat more healthily through one to one support:

Our livers do withstand a lot, Aussie94, so it's worth checking its health & helping it if we can.

For anyone unable to attend the screening sessions, British Liver Trust has developed an online screener that acts as an early warning system:
