2026 November Swimming Challenge

Help Laura raise 1000!

I’m swimming in November for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to swimming 15km this November for Sands, in memory of our daughter Scarlett who passed away on 25th August 2026.

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 and provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals so that fewer babies die and fewer families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.

💗 £10 could provide 3 families with a Sands birth certificate for a baby whose birth cannot be registered through a register office.

🩷 £25 could provide a bereaved family with a memory box to help preserve precious memories of their baby.

💜 £36.02 could help answer a call from someone reaching out for support after pregnancy loss or the death of a baby.

❤️ £75 could help answer two calls from bereaved parents.

Thank you. 🦋
