Online game to help save livers

A HEALTH charity has launched an online game that encourages people to take better care of their livers.

Liver Let Live highlights the common risks associated with liver cancer. Players are introduced to a cartoon character and guide him through an obstacle course, choosing healthy options.

Alison Rogers, chief executive of the British Liver Trust, said: "This game aims to encourage people to think about their liver health.

Prevention is such a key element in reducing rates of liver deaths, as 95 per cent of liver disease can be avoided by lifestyle changes."
