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.

Welcome!!
Saturday 15th Aug🏃♀️ Well… I’ve done something slightly impulsive. 😂
I’ve signed up for the Sands Virtual Ribbon 5K in October.
The small problem?
I haven’t run any distance since Christmas 2021.
I can walk 5K, but I thought I’d challenge myself to actually run some of it. Albeit probably very slowly and with plenty of questioning of my life choices. 😂
So… I’ve joined parkrun, ordered myself some proper running shoes and I’m going to give it a go.
I don’t get much free time to run, so even Couch to 5K is likely to take me a while to complete. But I’m not in a race to become a runner overnight — I’m just going to start where I am and see what I can do.
It’ll be a bit of a challenge, but that’s kind of the point 💪
If anyone would like to sponsor me, anything at all would be hugely appreciated and will help Sands
