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.

Friday 4th OctOctober 🖤🎃 spooky season and my birthday month...October also has a different meaning as it marks different events for Baby Loss Awareness week.
This year I'll be taking part in Sands, the stillbirth & neonatal death charity Ribbon Run along with a close friend. We've both experienced the devastation of baby loss at different stages and want to use this time to raise money and awareness.
Please consider donating to my fundraising page, I don't mind how much as every donation will go towards providing much needed help and support to bereaved parents.
Thank you xxx

Tuesday 27th Aug Hi everyone, thank you for taking the time to visit my page. I decided today to sign up to fundraise for SANDS, I haven't done much fundraising this year and this cause is most definitely worth it. It still feels like such a taboo subject but I have personally experienced loss and sadly many people I know have too. I hope you can donate, even a small amount will go towards making a difference 💗 ShareThank you to my Sponsors
