2026 Run 50k in September

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

I'm running 50k in September 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 fewer families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.

Thank you.

Thank you! 🧡

Sunday 6th Sep
Target reached! 🥳🧡
Just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone that has sponsored me! I have reached my target and I’m honestly so grateful to you all for your support! Running doesn’t come easy to me, not by a long shot! I wish it did! However, every run feels like I’ve just started and every step I regret my life choices 😂 Anyone who knows me knows I am not an exerciser… I’m an avoider, I’m a cheerleader on the sidelines and honestly, I’m proud of that… you won’t find a bigger cheerleader and supporter of my friends and family than me! 🫶🏻 BUT… sometimes I want to be part of it, even if it’s just a little bit, in my own way and I feel like I am getting there, slowly… a little bit at a time! 
Raising money for Sands is that little bit of extra motivation to keep going and prove to myself that I can do things I find hard… that I can join in and be part of it… even exercisey things 😊 And what better motivation than an amazing charity that does so much for people who are going through so much 💔 £175 is enough to provide a full day of bereavement care training for midwives and healthcare professionals, helping them to give the best care to families facing the unimaginable. That is down to your donations. 

So again, thank you, from the bottom of my heart… 16.5k down! 🧡
