I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run
I’ve committed to taking part in Sands Ribbon Run on Saturday the 11th October, as part of Baby Loss Awareness Week (9-15 October) for every much-loved baby sadly not here today, but specifically in memory of my precious niece, Abigail Judith, and to honour my sister, Yvonne.
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.
£10 - could provide a hand and footprint kit to help create memories.
£20 - could provide a bereaved family with a memory box to help create and keep safe precious and lasting memories of their baby.
£35 - could answer a call from someone reaching out for support who has been through pregnancy loss or the death of a baby.
£100 - could help ensure every hospital in the UK has a dedicated Sands volunteer to help healthcare professionals access our training, guidance and support.

Just 5 days to go!!
Monday 6th Oct There's just 5 days to go and I wanted to say the biggest thank you for all the support and encouragement, and for your fantastic donations that have smashed the target I set. This was always about remembering my beautiful niece and honouring my amazing sister, but the funds raised will also support the work that Sands do to support families suffering the loss of a precious child, and support research too - I can't thank you enough for your incredible support!

Well done Ruth, you're a star. This day is also the birthday of one of my nephews, who was killed by a bomb in Afghanistan where he was part of a peaceful keeping force.
