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

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

Why am I doing this?

Thursday 1st Jan
 sometimes things happen in our lives that send ripples down through everyone our lives have touched. 
I am genuinely saddened by the tragic loss of the baby that was expected by my ex husbands 1st daughter.  Baby James Henry Draper born sleeping on 16th December 2025 to a young woman who was in my life, and the lives of my children and other family members for a long time. 

I cannot send my condolences to you Rebecca. I know that you do not wish to hear from me. However I can do this challenge to acknowledge from one woman to another the tragic loss I can only imagine you, your partner and your chosen family are feeling.
I am deeply sorry and wish that there was more I could do however by raising some money for the charity that I hope will be supporting you right now through your grief I hope is a small gesture that may help somehow.
