2026 Ribbon Run Virtual

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.

£20 - could provide a bereaved family with a memory box to help create and keep safe precious and lasting memories of their baby.

£35 - could answer a call from someone reaching out for support who has been through pregnancy loss or the death of a baby.

£100 - could help ensure every hospital in the UK has a dedicated Sands volunteer to help healthcare professionals access our training, guidance and support.

Thursday 6th Aug
Totally overwhelmed with all the support so far. The average target set by SANDs was £150 and we've totally smashed it in less than 12 hours! 
Extatic that i can up the target and hopefully keep getting donations in until the day. 
Thank you! Xx 

A little bit of info

Thursday 6th Aug
Hi everyone.
Some of you may know that myself and Richard wlecomed a beautiful baby boy called Percy Sidney John into the world on May 8th 2017. 
Unfortunately there were complications, and after 7 days with us he peacefully passed away in my arms. 
I've decided this year to take part in the SANDS Ribbon Run. An event where you can walk, jog or run between 5, 10 and 15km.
Ive decided to walk from my home address in Briton Ferry to Mumbles. A distance of approximately 11 miles. 
Any donations will go to the charity SANDS, who specialise in supporting parents through baby loss. 
I will be setting off from my house on 10th October 2026 at 9am and tracking all distance travelled and posting the final distance. (I've signed up for the 10k, although Briton Ferry to Mumbles will be a bit further) 
Thank you so much for reading :)
