2026 Walk 100k in September

I’m walking 100K in September for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to walking 100K 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 less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.

Thank you.

Wednesday 2nd Sep

There is a quiet, profound ache that comes with losing a baby. Nothing prepares you for the suffocating stillness of a silent scan—staring at a screen, waiting for a flutter or a heartbeat that never comes, while the world shatters in absolute quiet. Some little ones truly are simply too precious for this earth, leaving behind empty arms and a lifetime of love with nowhere to go.

​In the darkest hours of baby loss, Sands offers a vital lifeline:

  • ​Bereavement Support: Free helplines, support networks, and compassionate care so no parent grieves alone.
  • ​Memory Boxes: Helping families capture irreplaceable keepsakes—tiny handprints, footprints, and blankets.
  • ​Prevention & Research: Funding vital studies and training healthcare teams to save babies' lives.

​Fundraising for Sands is my way of carrying that love forward and saying their names out loud. Every pound helps another heartbroken family find comfort in the dark and funds the research needed so fewer parents have to face that devastating silence.

​Always loved, never forgotten, and forever carried in our hearts.
