I’m running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss

This January, I’ve committed to running 2k every day for every much-loved baby who is sadly not here today 💔

Having worked as a neonatal nurse for many years, I have cared for and supported countless families through the unimaginable loss of a baby. Those experiences stay with you forever. I have also seen this heartbreak touch my own family and friends, who continue to grieve for their precious babies every single day.

So, alongside my sister-in-law, I’ve decided to start the year by doing something purposeful — raising funds, raising awareness, and helping to break the stigma around talking about baby loss. These babies matter. Their lives matter. And their families matter.

SANDS ensures that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve during the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide vital training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and fund research so that fewer babies die and fewer families have to experience this devastating loss.

Anything you are able to donate — no matter how small — truly means so much.

Thank you for your kindness and support 🤍
