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.

Why SANDS
Monday 15th Sep As I am wanting to become a future midwife, during my work experience I saw the different experiences of mothers in the hospital, and having those difficult and heartbreaking conversations with mothers who have wished for their baby is a fragile and perspective putting conversation. I still think about the families I cared for that week and the young babies who i did meet, by doing this walk for me it is a way to remember those who weren’t that fortunate and to therefore support those families who loved the precious babies 🩷 ShareThank you to my Sponsors
