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.

Thank you to everyone who’s donated and brought the total, higher than I ever thought it could be.

September germs 🦠

Tuesday 24th Sep
Training has been halted momentarily due to those back to school germs! 

Hoping to get back training this week, for the 20 minute run as part of my training plan. 🤞🏻

Thank you

Thursday 12th Sep

First of all, I want to say thank you. Not thank you for donating as you probably wanted to read this first. But thank you for your unwavering support over the past four months. Every message, check-in and hug as meant the world. 


Whilst a 5k isn’t as challenging as a marathon, I wanted to do something to honour our little Lily and raise important funds for SANDS who have indirectly supported us. 


Thank you for whatever you decide to donate. 1p, £1 or £10, will make a difference to this. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
