I’m running 50k in May for families facing baby loss

I'm running 50k in May 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.

Run 50k in May

Sunday 19th Apr

This May, I’m taking on a 50k run for SANDS.

This is something incredibly close to my heart. Having experienced loss myself, I know the kind of pain that never fully leaves you—and I also know I’m far from alone. So many families carry this quietly, and that’s why charities like SANDS matter so much.

This run isn’t just about the distance. It’s about remembering, supporting, and standing alongside everyone who has been through something similar. Every step is for the babies gone too soon, and for the families learning to live with that loss.

If you’re able to support, share, or simply take a moment to reflect, it really does mean a lot. 💛
