I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run

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

Sands exists to support anyone affected by the death of a baby, before, during or shortly after birth, whenever this happened and for as long as they need support. 

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

£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.

Why we’re doing this 🩵

Monday 11th Aug
If you’ve scrolled enough into this page to read this… thank you so very much! 

So, the ribbon run! This is all in aid of a very worthy charity, a charity my family and I hold really close to our hearts. They provide crucial support to families who go through baby loss. It’s not just your run of the mill “here’s a number to call if you get sad about loosing your much loved baby”… 
It’s real people, volunteers who gave me the chance to get treasured hand and footprints from my boy, a teddy for him to keep with him, a matching one for me so I had a small connection to him when leaving the hospital without him. 
These are just 2 small things, the list of things they do for bereaved families goes on. 

Without this charity I don’t know what I’d have to remember my Angel Boy. So if you can spare anything, I promise you, it’s a worthy cause.  

Thanks for reading!
