STRIDES & STORIES

Run 50k in September 2025

We're running 300k in September for families facing baby loss.

We're Strides & Stories - a group of friends who started as a book club. This September, we’re lacing up to run 300km collectively in support of Sands. Within our Book Club, several members have experienced the heartbreak of fertility struggles, miscarriage and stillbirth so a charity that helps to save babies lives and provide bereavement support to families is something very close to all of us. 


Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research so that fewer babies die and so that less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.


Please support us if you can — with a donation, a share, or even a few words of encouragement.
