50k in May 👟

This May, I’ll be taking on a 50k running challenge in support of Sands 💙

As a bereavement midwife, I have the privilege of supporting families through some of the most heartbreaking moments of their lives. I see first-hand the importance of compassion, understanding, and the right support during baby loss.

Sands is a charity that makes such a difference, offering vital support to bereaved families and working to improve care and prevent baby loss wherever possible.

I want to do this challenge for the babies who should be here, for the families who carry them in their hearts every day, and for the colleagues who walk alongside them.

If you’re able to support, donate, or simply share this post, it would mean so much. 

Thank you 💙
