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.

My steps today to and from school and my total steps that was not recorded on live My Sands 100K Walk for Baby Loss Awareness I walk for my two babies — the ones I never got to hold long enough, the ones who changed me forever.

Every mile is for them. #support #100kwalkseptember #makingadiffrence #togther f you’re able to donate, even a small amount, it truly means more than I can say.

I've donated £25 to my own page. £25 could provide one heartbroken family with a memory box, helping them create special lasting memories with their baby. Every memory box is filled with precious items that families can treasure forever and hold close to their hearts.
