Our stories
Hi I'm Amy, I am completing this Ribbon Run as I have suffered from three heartbreaking pregnancy losses.
My first miscarriage was September 2020 my angel baby Ace. My second miscarriage was an ectopic pregnancy in July 2021 my angel baby Nova and my third miscarriage was October 2021 my third and final angel baby River.
Hi I'm Jess, I am completing this Ribbon Run as I have suffered from two heartbreaking pregnancy losses.
My first miscarriage was an ectopic pregnancy in May 2025 my first angel baby and my second miscarriage was August 2025. The last 5/6 months have been the hardest months of my life.
We're taking part in Sands Ribbon Run this Baby Loss Awareness Week 9-15 October.
Sands exists to support anyone affected by the death of a baby, before, during or shortly after birth, whenever this happened and for as long as they need support.
By sponsoring us, you are helping Sands break the silence around baby loss and to continue to save babies’ lives.
£10 - could provide a hand and footprint kit to help create memories.
£20 - could provide a bereaved family with a memory box to help create and keep safe precious and lasting memories of their baby.
£35 - could answer a call from someone reaching out for support who has been through pregnancy loss or the death of a baby.
£100 - could help ensure every hospital in the UK has a dedicated Sands volunteer to help healthcare professionals access our training, guidance and support.
Thank you to our Sponsors
