2026 Ribbon Run Virtual

Help Samantha raise 250!

I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run

I’ve committed to taking part in Sands Ribbon Run which takes place during Baby Loss Awareness Week (9-15 October) 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.

£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.

My inspiration

Monday 31st Aug
14 years ago, almost to the day, I had a miscarriage that, to this day, I'm still not 100% passed. As a result of some medical mishaps, I nearly lost the ability to have children completely. However, I was able to have my wonderful son jack in 2013. 

I still mourn what I believe would have been my little girl to this day. I often think about what she would have looked like, what her personality would have been. What would she have loved, what would she have loathed. 

I did not receive the support and guidance at the time that I so desperately needed. I had people I should have been able to trust referring to my lost child as a 'little accident'.  Not a word of comfort for me, or her own son who also suffered this loss. Just cold, hard logic. No one deserves that.

SANDS provides this support to those who don't have it at home. They deserve so much support and praise for what they do. 

That's why I support them, so women and their partners don't just experience cold, hard logic during their loss, but support, love and understanding 

Thank you to my Sponsors
