Run 50k in April 2025

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

I’ve committed to running 50k in April 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.

Help Save Babies’ Lives and Support Bereaved Families with Sands

Thursday 3rd Apr

Every day, too many families experience the unimaginable loss of a baby. Sands, a charity dedicated to saving babies’ lives and supporting bereaved families, is working tirelessly to provide crucial care, research, and advocacy to prevent baby loss and offer comfort to those who need it most.


This April, a dedicated group of runners is taking on a 50km challenge to raise vital funds for Sands. Every step we take is in honor of the little lives lost too soon and the families left behind. Your support can make a real difference—whether by funding research to prevent baby deaths or ensuring that bereaved parents receive the compassionate care they deserve.


How You Can Help:


  • Donate: Every contribution, no matter the size, helps Sands continue their life-changing work.
  • Spread the Word: Share this message to raise awareness and encourage more support.
  • Get Involved: If you feel inspired, consider joining or supporting the event in any way you can.



Together, we can bring hope to grieving families and work towards a future where fewer lives are lost. Click here to donate and be part of this important cause.


Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
