I’m walking 100K in September for Sands baby loss

I’ve committed to walking 100K in September for every much-loved baby sadly not here today.

We have now lost four much wanted babies due to miscarriage; this is a cause massively close to our hearts. Not only do we want to raise money for Sands - but to raise awareness of how miscarriage and baby loss affects so many. We need to be talking about it and recognising the pain and long term trauma that baby loss and infertility causes. 

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.

Final walk!

Saturday 28th Sep
This afternoon me and James headed out Macclesfield way to near our wedding venue and did our final walk of the challenge. ❤️ 

One month ago yesterday we lost our fourth baby. I feel extremely proud of achieving this challenge within that time - every km had been a ‘purposeful walk’ rather than just daily steps/ walking. 

It has given us something to focus on and a positive challenge to get us through a really difficult month. We’re absolutely blown away not only by all of your generous donations, but by all the love and support we have received. 

Thank you 🙏 ❤️ 🌈 🕯️ 💫 💫💫💫

Party in the park and walks in the rain

Sunday 8th Sep
We’ve had a nice weekend up in Preston at Radio 2s Party In the park. Was great to see some of our favourite bands and have some fun. ❤️ 

I started my Saturday with a nice 5.5km walk with my friend Holly, then included some walking to and from the park for the event in Preston. I didn’t count them all in the challenge but I did 24,000 steps yesterday…( reckon about 5000 of these were dancing to Craig David!) 

This morning we got ourselves up and out and did a walk round Beacon Fell near my parents house in Preston. Unfortunately it started raining or we would have done a little more walking! 

Getting closer to the midway point now of the challenge which I hope the get to in the coming days. 

James and also run 33km so far! So keep sponsoring for him as well. 

Thanks so much for your ongoing support - we are enjoying having this to focus on at the moment. 

A day of walks with friends

Wednesday 4th Sep
Today I have closed my laptop and had some time catching up with friends whilst getting those Km clocked up! 

In total I walked 9.1km today - not only did it feel good to be getting towards my target, but being outside gave me time to reflect and have some proper headspace on a day when I’ve felt quite emotional. 💕


James is taking on the challenge too…

Monday 2nd Sep
So after a day at work I thought I’d go for a quick walk and then accidentally took a wrong turn out of the park near our house and ended up walking 4km 🫣 

So that’s a total of 9km down already! 

I’m trying to update the km walked on the page and it’s not updating properly…

James has also decided that he is going to do the full challenge too but running. He’s done a casual 12km this evening to get started. 

Thank you so much for all the donations so far. Giving us a focus and a target this week is helping so much. 💕

First walk done!

Sunday 1st Sep
This morning we got up early and headed to Dunham Massey for our first walk. 5.18km down in just over an hour! 

Then we came home and have had some delicious GF  scones with jam and cream that our lovely friends Jess and Dean sent us. ❤️

95km to go! 

Thank you to my Sponsors
