I’m running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss
I’ve committed to running 2k a day this January 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.

Due date
Tuesday 20th Jan So today would have been my due date for my second miscarriage. I had a miscarriage 6 months prior to this miscarriage also. Today I’m feeling overwhelmed with emotion & that guilt I had when I found out I’d miscarried again. Life can be so cruel sometimes & I wouldn’t wish the pain of it on anyone. I hope the money raised here will be anble to ease the pain a little for other parents going through loss. Share
Day 2 of 2k every day in January
Friday 2nd Jan Today was emotional…I felt very tearful running the 2k today & achy from yesterday but very proud also! I’m not only battling personal grief, I feel like I’m turning it into a positive. Thanks to everyone that’s shown me love & support. You’ll never know what it means to me ♥️ x Share
Running for Those I Carry in My Heart
Wednesday 31st DecEvery day in January , I will run 2k for Sands.
I know that some days the run will feel strong and purposeful and that other days it will feel heavy, slow, and emotional. But I will show up anyway, because this isn’t about pace, distance, or fitness. It’s about love.
I’m running in memory of my babies, the ones I never got to hold, but will always carry.
Baby loss is something that changes you quietly and permanently. It’s grief that often goes unseen, unspoken, and misunderstood. But it matters. ‘THEY’ matter.
Each step I take will be for them, and for every parent who has felt that same heartbreak. For the silence after hope. For the empty arms. For the lives that were real, even if they were brief.
Supporting Sands means supporting compassion, understanding, and care for families navigating the worst moments of their lives. It means making sure no one has to feel alone in their loss.
On the days this run feels hard, I will remind myself why I started. Love is the reason. Always love.
Thank you to everyone who has supported, donated, messaged, or simply taken a moment to remember our babies with me. It means more than I can put into words.

I am doing this in memory of our babies that are no longer with us. That didn’t make it to earth. There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t miss you & think about what you would have been like. I love you with all of my heart.
