I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run

I’ve committed to taking part in Sands Ribbon Run which takes place during Baby Loss Awareness Week (9-15 October) 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.

£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 Loui

Thursday 1st Oct
To break the silence and show other parents that they are not alone.

My Loui was born sleeping on the 9th April 2018. Grief can hit at anytime, and I’ve had to make hard life choices due to this. 

Sands offer support and allow you to talk about your baby. The call and text system to speak to bereavement staff enabled me to talk about him with no judgement and offer a listening ear which sometimes is all you need. 

I’ll be walking 10k during baby loss awareness week to raise money for this amazing charity and give back for those who have lost a baby either recently or years ago. The hurt never stops which is what some people need to realise. 
 
If you would like to sponsor me please use the link and I’ll be keeping this updated with my daily walks
