Pictured (above right) is Damien who is taking part in the Loch Ness Marathon on Sunday to raise funds and awareness for several charities including the RVH Liver Support Group. Damien’s wife, Mairead, had a liver transplant five years ago and he wants to recognise the support that he and his wife received. Damien commented “We have received so much help and support from the Group over the past five years and would like to give back to those who have given us so much”.
