I’m running 50k in September for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to running 50k in September 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.

Sponsored run - daughter and mum

Wednesday 3rd Sep

This year, me and my daughter are taking part in a sponsored run to raise money for Sands, a charity that means so much to us.


We’ve both been really touched by the work Sands does – supporting families through the heartbreak of baby loss, raising awareness, and funding research to save babies’ lives. Sadly, too many families are affected, and the care and compassion Sands provides is something no one should be without.


For us, doing this run together is really special. It’s a chance to spend time side by side, pushing ourselves, and reminding each other why we’re doing it. My daughter has been so enthusiastic about joining in – she’s proud to be part of something that makes a difference, and I’m proud of her determination and caring heart.


Our hope is that by running together, we can help raise awareness as well as funds. Every step we take is for the families who need support, and for a future where fewer families face the pain of baby loss.


We’d love your support in helping us reach our fundraising goal. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a real difference to families in need. 

Thank you so much for reading and supporting us – it means the world.
