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.

Our story

Wednesday 16th Sep

Hi everyone ❤️ I wanted to share something with you all that not many people know about, and something that has been very difficult for me and Dave to talk about.

At the start of August, we sadly suffered a devastating ectopic pregnancy and lost our baby. It has been an incredibly hard time for both of us, and we’re still trying to process everything and take each day as it comes. ❤️

Our story to our baby has been a hard road with many many lows. This was a much wanted baby and to have lost it in this way was devastating in ways people will never understand. 

Baby Loss Awareness Week is 9th–15th October, and there is a charity called SANDS, who support families affected by baby loss. As part of the week, they hold a Ribbon Run to remember and honour the babies who have been lost.

I’ve decided that I’m going to take part in the 5k Ribbon Run on Sunday 11th October to remember our little baby 💖
