I’m 'running' 2k a day in Febuary for families facing baby loss
My sister and her husband are running a minimum of 2km every day throughout February to raise money for SANDS, a charity that supports families affected by stillbirth and neonatal loss. They’re doing this in memory of their first child, Isabel, who was born sleeping.
It was an incredibly difficult time for them and for our whole family, but they’ve chosen to turn that loss into something positive by supporting a charity that helps other families through similar heartbreak.
I’ve joined their challenge in solidarity, committing to at least 2km a day for the whole of February. I’ll be honest — I’m a bit of a couch potato, so while 2km might not sound like much to some, for me it’s a habit I’ve not had for quite some time. Alongside supporting a cause that means a lot to my family, it’ll also be doing my health the world of good (I can't guarantee every step will be ran but my feet will be moving!!).
If you feel able, I’d really appreciate any sponsorship. Even a small donation would mean a lot and will go to supporting the vital work SANDS does....
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.
