I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run

I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run in Manchester this Baby Loss Awareness Week 9-15 October.

Support me as I take on my distance 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.

By sponsoring me, you are helping Sands break the silence around baby loss and to continue to save babies’ lives.

£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.

My story

Sunday 8th Jun
In 2016 I went into premature labour at just over 20 weeks. I remember the words “I’m so sorry there’s no heartbeat” I went on the following day to give birth to my beautiful baby boy. A couple of days later I was greeted by a lovely lady with a little box full of keepsake items and she explained to me that it was donated from a charity called SANDS, I had never heard of this charity before. I was able to bring home some of my baby boys things in this box which meant the world to me and still does to this day. 
This is why I have decided to run the 10k, to raise money for other families that have gone through such a terrible thing, so that they can receive a box full of keepsake items, take them home and cherish them forever. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
