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

I'm running 50k in May 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.

This challenge isn't just about the distance or ticking off kilometres; it’s about doing something that feels meaningful from start to finish. I know there will be moments where it feels tiring or I’ll want to slow down, but I hope by the end of it I’ve proved to myself that I can keep going, step by step, for something that really matters.

More than anything, I want this challenge to help raise awareness for baby loss and the support Sands provides to families going through something incredibly painful. It’s a topic that can feel hard to talk about, but I hope taking part in something like this helps make it feel a little less silent. By the time I cross that final stretch, I want to feel like those 50 kilometres have meant something bigger than just me walking them that they’ve been turned into support, remembrance, and a small way of showing up for families who need it most.
