I’m running 2k a day in Febuary for families facing baby loss
I’ve committed to running 2k a day this February 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.

First 2k run 🥹
Sunday 1st FebFirst run in over a year — and wow, I am unfit.
But today wasn’t about pace or distance. It was about starting.
I’m running for Sands, a charity that has supported so many families through the hardest moments imaginable. I’ve done this run before, and now — as a mother — their mission resonates even more deeply with me.
If you’re able to donate or share, it would mean the world 💜
Every step from here is for them.
Stepping Up for Sands This February
Saturday 31st JanTomorrow I begin the challenge of running (or moving!) 2km a day throughout February for Sands.
I want to be open from the start — I have never experienced the loss of a baby myself, and for that I am incredibly grateful. But I am a mother, and I’ve lived and worked around people who have needed Sands’ support. Seeing how vital that support is has stayed with me.
No one ever expects to need a charity like Sands, but when families do, having compassionate support can make all the difference. That’s why I chose to take on this challenge again — even though, if I’m honest, it fills me with a fair bit of dread as I’m far from my fittest!
This month isn’t about speed or perfection. It’s about showing up, doing what I can, and supporting a cause that matters deeply. Some days will be hard, some will be slow, but every step is for a reason.
Thank you so much to anyone who supports, donates, shares, or simply takes a moment to read this. It truly means more than you know 💜
