I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run

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

Support me as I take on 5, 10 or 15km 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. It’s free to sign up and it’s up to you how you take part. You can run it, walk it, push it, or jog it; alone or with friends and family.

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

£3 - could provide a Sands birth certificate for a baby whose birth cannot be registered through a register office.

£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.

Noa Navarro 🩷

Friday 6th Jun
In August 2023, after months of IVF, we discovered that we were pregnant for the first time with our beautiful baby girl, Noa. As most parents do, we began planning for her arrival and eagerly imagining life as a family of 3. We were so happy, however at 14 weeks we had a scan and discovered that our baby girl had anencephaly - a neural tube defect that affects the development of the skull.  Words cannot describe the pain when someone tells you that your child is “incompatible with life” and won’t survive outside of your womb. It destroyed us.

With the help of charity groups like SANDs and TFMR mamas we have been able to process what has happened. From offering counselling and support to advocating for certificates acknowledging my girl, these charities have really helped us navigate life after loss. So now, in October (the day before her birthday) we will be running in the Ribbon Run in Heaton Park to honour our girl, our angel.

Please donate and help these wonderful charities so that more families can receive the support they need.
