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.

Walking 10K

Wednesday 9th Sep
After finding out how peaceful walking can be i’ve decided to take part in a 10k walk for Baby Loss Awareness Week. 

This cause is close to my heart as I not only suffered a missed miscarriage almost 16 years ago but went on to have the most amazing kids. I personally know others that lost their baby to soon. 

I will be completing this on Monday 12th October 26

I would be grateful for any support no matter how small. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
