I'm taking part in Sands Starlight Walk

I’m taking part in Sands Starlight Walk as I want to help those affected by the loss of a baby to find the light in the dark. Every day 13 babies die before, during or shortly after birth. I am raising funds to help Sands continue to build a world where more babies survive, and more families receive the happy ending they deserve.  

I'm taking part in the Sands Starlight  Walk again this year on the 22nd November to honour our daughter Princess, Asees. 

Asees was loved before we even knew she'd be in our world and unfortunately she never got to receive the abundance of love we have for her in this world. 

Last year, we set the walk as a challenge for Ambi's rehabilitation from surgery, whilst in the midst of grief. This year, we walk to ensure Asees' light never waivers in our lives. She is and always will be our first born and the most perfect baby. 

I take part in this walk to ensure that any bereaved parent can receive the love, support and space to honour their always loved children who have gone too soon. 

Please sponsor me and help Sands create a legacy of hope and comfort, showing the world how much every baby is loved.

For you Princess, always…

Starlight Walk is a sponsored walk where hundreds of people come together to walk under the stars to remember their babies and raise funds for Sands. If you’d like to join me on this challenge, you can sign up here http://www.fundraising.sands.org.uk/starlight-walk Starlight Walk events take place across the UK or you could choose to take part virtually at a location of your choice.

On the darkest of nights, the stars shine the brightest.
