I’m running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to running 2k a day this January 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.

I did it!!! 🙌🏻

Saturday 31st Jan
And, it’s done! 38.5 miles of running over the course of 31 days, and a whopping £700 raised for Sands, who are the most incredible charity, supporting struggling or bereaved parents who were previously left to suffer in silence during the most agonising period of their lives.

I am so proud of myself for getting through it and showing up every day, despite not being a runner - in ice, wind and rain, early and late hours, before or after work, and some days with the most horrendous of colds! And trust me, if I can do it, bloody anyone can.

A huge thank you to everyone who donated - the support has meant the world to me and really did keep me going, just knowing how much faith everyone had in me.

Thanks again to everyone for their kindness - what a wonderful beginning to 2026! 🤍🪽

£500 Target - Smashed! 🎉

Sunday 11th Jan
Truly amazing to have surpassed £500, from some people I’ve never even had the pleasure of meeting no less! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for digging deep at a time of year where there’s not much spare change around after Christmas. I’m usually running around Kenfig Hill, down the Waun, Porthcawl Seafront or at Energie Fitness in Bridgend, please give me a wave if you spot me 🥹🤍

Target increase… Again! 🥰

Saturday 3rd Jan
I can’t believe how many people have sponsored me and how much has been donated since I posted on Facebook/Insta again this morning - started the day off around £160, the pot is now past £300! It’s early days yet, so why not increase the goal and turn it into more of a challenge… I may regret this, but I’m setting it to £500! Fingers crossed 🤞🏻  Thanks to all my newest sponsors x 

Another target hit 🥹

Saturday 3rd Jan
I can’t get over everyone’s generosity - it appears Sands is a charity very close to people’s hearts. Increasing the target to £300 after seeing all the success so far! Love you all 🤍x

Target smashed in less than 24 hours!

Monday 15th Dec
Due to the support I’ve received in less than 24 hours, I’ve decided to increase my sponsor goal to £250. It would mean the world to me if I could get enough sponsors to hit this target and raise even more money for Sands than I initially thought possible 🩷 Thanks to all my sponsors so far x
