I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run 5k (please read before you decide to donate)
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.
I am very much not a runner, actually I hate running and my 1.5k on Monday 22nd September was my first proper run since longer than I can remember. But, I feel like I want to push for this amazing charity and I would appreciate if you take the time to look at the work they do and if you feel it is worthy of a few pounds then maybe skip a coffee from Starbucks and give it so it can be put to very good use.
Equally as importantly - If you cannot donate, how about sending a message to someone who you know has been affected by the loss of a baby.
Here is a bit about whats Sands do for families:
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.
