I’m running 31 miles in May for families experiencing baby loss

I'm challenging myself to run 31 miles throughout May to support Sands (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Society). Sands is a vital but underfunded charity providing much needed emotional support to families who have experienced the devastating loss of a pregnancy or baby.

As someone who is not a runner, this will be a definite challenge for me but I would like to play my part in making a difference and helping to break the silence around this difficult topic.

After pregnancy or baby loss, putting one foot in front of the other is incredibly difficult, both literally and metaphorically. If you are able to sponsor me, and help Sands continue their vital work, I would be incredibly grateful. Each mile represents hope and support for families when they need it most.


Thank you 🤍


Why Sands Matters

  • Sands provides crucial emotional support to families experiencing the loss of a baby
  • They offer bereavement care training for healthcare professionals
  • They fund research to reduce the number of babies dying and improve bereavement care
  • They advocate for changes in policy to save babies' lives


The Challenge Details

  • 31 miles (more if I can!) throughout May
  • For a non-runner like me, this will truly challenge me!
  • I'll be tracking and sharing my progress throughout the month
  • Millie will be my running companion and will keep me on pace! 


How Your Support Makes a Difference

  • Every donation helps Sands continue their vital work
  • Your sponsorship will directly fund bereavement support services
  • Your support gives me motivation to keep going when it gets tough!


Thank you for helping me support families during their darkest moments.

What a meaningful cause! Stillbirth and miscarriages are absolutely devastating, the depths of which are so often not seen and just can’t be understood by anyone who hasn’t experienced it. Thank you for the chance to show my support to you and to so many other mothers of angels 🤍
