15km for Elle 🩷

I’m going to be taking part in the Ribbon Run which takes place during Baby Loss Awareness Week (9-15 October) in memory of my daughter Elle and other babies who are sadly no longer with us. I will run/walk 15km throughout the day on the 11th of October. 

Sands is a charity that ensure’s 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.

£10 - could provide a hand and footprint kit to help create memories.

£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.

A bit about Elle 🩷

Friday 12th Sep
Elle passed away at 6 weeks old after being born over 8 weeks premature after I was diagnosed with sever preeclampsia. 
She faced a difficult battle at the beginning of her life being born at 3lbs 5oz but was strong and fought off all challenges. 
She was a sassy, wild character and lived at home for two weeks but unfortunately passed away during the night at the beginning of October 2022, leaving a gap in our family. 

This year I will be walking/running 15km throughout the day on October 11th during baby loss awareness week to raise money and awareness in her memory, hoping to raise funds so that other families can be supported through their losses. 

Any donations would be greatly appreciated thank you.
