Run 2k a Day in February 2026

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

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

My Baby, My Loss, My Story

Saturday 17th Jan

Baby loss is something no one ever expects, yet so many families live with its impact every day. When a baby is gone, the world often moves on too quickly, leaving parents to grieve in silence. I started this charity because I know how isolating that silence can feel — the heartbreak, the unanswered questions, and the need for understanding that so often goes unmet.


By donating, you are helping to break that silence. Your support allows us to raise awareness, provide education, and create safe spaces where grieving parents feel seen, heard, and supported. You are helping us remind families that their baby mattered, their grief is valid, and they are not alone.

Proud of you, we will do this together to help raise awareness and remember the babies we never got to meet.
