I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run
I’ve committed to taking part in Sands Ribbon Run in Manchester which takes place during Baby Loss Awareness Week on Saturday 10 October 2026. I am taking part 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.

Tuesday 29th SepHi everyone,
Firstly, I just want to say a massive thank you to each and every person who has sponsored me so far for my 10K run, which is now just under two weeks away!
Thanks to your incredibly kind donations, I’ve managed to raise over £500. This is truly amazing. Your generosity and support mean so much to me and of course, to the charity SANDS.
My training has been going really well. I’m feeling fitter and healthier, and I’ve been out running in all weathers, continuing to push myself and improve my times.
I’m reliably informed that Heaton Park is quite hilly, but I’ve been training for this, so here’s hoping I can put in a good time on the day! 🤞
Thanks again for all your kind messages, support and generosity. It really does mean a lot.
Christian :)
