2026 Ribbon Run Virtual

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.

Why?!

Sunday 13th Sep
Two reasons I’ve decided to go from couch to 5k.. in a month… anyone who knows me knows I don’t run nor have I have tried.

1) We are extremely lucky to have Lily in our lives now (who’s just turned one!) But before Lily came along we also faced one of the toughest points of our lives when we lost baby t a few months into our first pregnancy and suffered a miscarriage. It’s not a feeling anyone should have to go through or face. So every little pound that can help parents, whether support, help them grieve etc does count! 

2) Hospitality is brutal it’s a life choice we have worked through and given our lives towards and missed so many opportunities over the years. Having a little one changes the outlook on life and to try and find that balance again, so here’s starting with fresh air (otherwise she’s going to run rings around us!)

Donate what you can, every penny turns into a a pound and does help!
