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

I'm running 50k in May 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.

Running 50k in May

Tuesday 28th Apr

This May, I’ll be running 50k to raise money for Sands 💙

While I haven’t personally experienced baby loss, I have seen the heartbreak it causes through family and friends who have gone through it. I’ve also seen how much support Sands has given them during some of the hardest times of their lives.

Sands provides incredible support for anyone affected by pregnancy loss or the death of a baby, as well as working to improve maternity safety and save babies’ lives.

That’s why I wanted to take on this challenge and do something meaningful to help raise funds for such an important charity.

Any donation, big or small, would mean so much and will help Sands continue their amazing work. Thank you so much for your support 💙
