I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run
I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run this Baby Loss Awareness Week 9-15 October.
Support me as I take on 5, 10 or 15km in support of Sands, helping them to continue to build a world where more babies survive and more families receive the happy ending they deserve.
Ribbon Run is a sponsored run, walk or jog where thousands of people come together to remember their babies and raise funds for Sands. It’s free to sign up and it’s up to you how you take part. You can run it, walk it, push it, or jog it; alone or with friends and family.
By sponsoring me, you are helping Sands break the silence around baby loss and to continue to save babies’ lives.
£3 - could provide a Sands birth certificate for a baby whose birth cannot be registered through a register office.
£10 - could provide a hand and footprint kit to help create memories.
£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.

Walk for Layla
Sunday 29th Sep
ShareAs you may know, Layla my beautiful granddaughter was born on 8 September 2023; sadly she passed away the same day. I will be joining Alex, my son, on his half marathon run ( I will be walking 10k!) on The Billy Trail, Hayling Island, to raise money for this wonderfully supportive charity. Should you wish to sponsor me, I attached the link below. Much love and many thanks.https://fundraising.sands.org.uk/fundraisers/gerryholden/ribbon-run
