Joe and I are running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss

Joe and I have committed to running 2k a day each this January 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.

We did it!!!

Saturday 31st Jan
As our fundraiser for SANDS comes to an end, we just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported, sponsored, and encouraged us over the past month.
Not only did we both complete the full 62km, but together we raised an incredible £375 — far more than we ever imagined when we first signed up. We are truly overwhelmed by everyone’s generosity and kindness, and we’re so grateful to each and every person who donated, shared our page, or cheered us on along the way.
This challenge was no small feat for us. Neither of us had any running experience before starting, so we were stepping well outside our comfort zones. There were definitely tough days, sore legs, and moments where motivation was hard to find — but there were also days we genuinely enjoyed, felt proud of ourselves, and realised just how far we’d come.
Knowing we were running for such an important cause made every kilometre worth it. SANDS does vital work supporting families affected by baby loss, and we’re honoured to have been able to contribute, even in a small way.
Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for helping us turn this challenge into something truly meaningful. 💙

Still getting over a nasty cough and cold, but I pushed through a 4k run, not my fastest but still on my way to hitting that 62kms target this month, just a few more days to go! We can do this!

I was really proud of myself today! I completed 4K in 45.56 mins, thats almost 4 mins faster than my last 4K! Joe completed 5K this evening and is on target to achieving his goal of 5K in 30mins! Go on Joe 💪

Day 19

Tuesday 20th Jan
I thought I would share how your amazing donations will support other families.
 £100 could help ensure every hospital in the UK has a dedicated Sands volunteer to help healthcare professionals offer the best possible care when the very worst happens.
£25 will give a family a memory box to help them make special memories with 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 trains midwives in bereavement management.
