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.

Walking 100k for Braxton

Tuesday 25th Aug

I’m walking 100k for sands in memory of my beautiful baby boy brax💙

This isn’t just a challenge for me. Every single step I take will be for my boy.

On the 5th March 2025, I became Braxton’s mummy, and on the 19th April 2025, my whole world changed forever when I lost him at just 6 weeks old. There are no words that could ever properly explain what it feels like to lose your baby. You don’t just grieve the time you had with them, you grieve every single moment you should have had — every birthday, every first, every milestone and the whole life you had pictured together.

So I’m taking on 100K because I want to do something in Brax’s name that can help other families who find themselves living through the unimaginable.

There will probably be days where my legs hurt and I really don’t want to walk 😂 but whenever it gets difficult, I’ll remind myself exactly why I’m doing it. For Brax. For every baby who should still be here. And for every mum, dad and family who has had to learn how to carry on without them.

Brax may have only been here for a short time, but he has changed my entire life. I will spend the rest of mine making sure his name is spoken, his little life is remembered and that everything I do for him keeps a part of him here with me.

So here’s to 100k for my boy💙

For you, Braxton Anthony Josef Baines.
05.03.25 – 19.04.25 👼🏼

Mummy loves you more than anything, forever and always.
Every step is for you. 💙🦋

If anybody would like to support me by donating or even just sharing my page, I would be so grateful. Every donation helps Sands continue supporting bereaved families and making sure nobody has to face baby loss alone.
