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.

Why I’m walking 🩵💙💜💜
Sunday 4th OctThis Baby Loss Awareness Week, I’ll be walking 5K in memory of my beautiful baby boy, and for every family who has ever had to experience the pain of losing their baby.
At my 13 week scan, our world changed forever. We found out that our little boy was very poorly with a condition called Megacystis and, heartbreakingly, we lost him.
Although his time with us was far too short, and we never got to meet him, he was loved from the moment we knew he existed. He will always be our baby, our son and a part of our family. 💙
I’m doing this walk because baby loss can feel incredibly lonely, and I want to help raise awareness and remind other parents who have experienced loss that they are not alone. Their babies matter. Their stories matter. And the love they have for their babies never disappears.
I’ll be walking every step for my little boy, carrying him with me in my heart. 💙
Baby loss awareness week is for the babies we never got to bring home.
For the parents who had to leave hospital without their baby.
For the siblings, grandparents, families and friends who grieve alongside them.
And for the babies who will forever be loved and remembered.
