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.

£10 - could provide a hand and footprint kit to help create memories.

£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.

im running because....

Wednesday 17th Sep
Im running to raise money for SANDS because baby loss is something I have, unfortunately experienced. During the time of covid/lock down my darling boy grew his wings at 20weeks - one of the hardest things I have ever had to do, giving birth to my child knowing he wasn't coming home to join my family, to meet his siblings. Trying to hold it together for the children at home as well as helping them understand why their baby brother wasnt able to come home with me. 
The support out their is incredible, beautiful momentos avaliable but non of its possible without the donations the charity receives. 
If I can raise even enough to bring comfort to just one grieving family, would make me so happy. 
Taking part in this charity run event with like-minded people is going to be an emotional, comforting and rewarding experience. 
Kylo baby, mummy's doing this one for...injust know you'll be there watching down on us all 🪽 

Thank you to my Sponsors
