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.

Why this is important for me

Thursday 1st Oct
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. 
For every woman who saw two lines and immediately started imagining a future…
For every mom who had a due date that came and went without a baby in her arms.
For every family who heard the words, “I’m sorry, there’s no heartbeat.”
For every person who had to grieve a baby while the rest of the world 
Pregnancy loss is more than losing a pregnancy it’s losing the dreams, plans and future you had imagined. 

No matter how early or late the loss, your baby was loved, and your grief is valid. 🤍🕊️

This month, we remember the babies who couldn’t stay and the families who carry their love forever.
