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.

Sands Run 2026

Saturday 3rd Oct
My annual run will look a little different this year.  The fabulous Sandra Stephen, a true powerhouse for the Aberdeen Sands group has arranged a run as part of the Hazelhead Park run, so I’ll no longer be slowly jogging my way round my own village alone.
I’m looking forward to joining the team as I complete my 6th year.
6 years of wondering what ifs and what he would have been like. 6 years of knowing and supporting this valuable charity, that people often only find out about because the worst thing in life has happened to them and they’ve lost a baby.
Thank you Sands, for everything you do.
