I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run
I’ve committed to taking part in Sands Ribbon Run which takes place during Baby Loss Awareness Week (9-15 October) for every much-loved baby sadly not here today.
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.
Thank you.
£20 - could provide a bereaved family with a memory box to help create and keep safe precious and lasting memories of their 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.

💙 For My Beautiful Gabriel 💙
Sunday 20th SepI never imagined I would ever have to write a story about my baby that I didn’t get to bring home My beautiful baby boy Gabriel was loved from the moment I knew he was growing inside me👼💙Sadly my pregnancy ended at around 23 weeks for medical reasons❤️🩹I had to face something no mum should ever have to face saying goodbye to her baby before getting the chance to watch him grow Gabriel wasn’t just a pregnancy He wasn’t just a number He was my son💙i chose his name Gabriel because it means “God is my strength” That meaning has stayed with me through some of the hardest days of my life🕊️There are so many things I will never get to do with him I won’t get to hear him call me Mum watch his first steps see his smile or celebrate his birthdays Those are the moments I should have had and that loss will always hurt But I will always be his mum❤️I’m taking part in the Sands fundraiser because I want Gabriel’s life and memory to mean something beyond my own heartbreak Sands supports parents and families who have lost a baby They help people through the loneliness heartbreak and confusion that comes with baby loss something that can be incredibly difficult to understand unless you have lived through it yourself I know how important that support can be So I’m asking for your help💙
