I’m swimming in November for families facing baby loss
I’ve committed to swimming this November 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 and provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals so that fewer babies die and fewer families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.
Thank you.

Wednesday 21st Oct Not many people know this as we do chose to keep our private life, private. When me and my wife, Denise were expecting our first child we were thrilled to hear that we were in fact having twins. However, this thrill quickly deflated as we were told that unfortunately we had lost one. We have wondered what life would be like with two, and our daughter Sophia knows she was a twin without us really telling her. She asks questions and we tell her what we can. I’m not really great at many things and due to injuries in sports can’t run or play football etc. one thing I am good at is swimming and I’ve made the decision to swim 10km throughout November to help support other grieving parents. Please help and support in any small way you can, it will go a long way to help the great people at Sands help parents like me and my wife. Thank you ShareThank you to my Sponsors
