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

I'm running 50k in May 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.

Doing this challenge for a charity like Sands means a lot to me on a personal level as I have dedicated the last 5/6 years playing football for sands and I have just fell in love with running over the past few months so when I see this challenge I was going to jump at the opportunity straight away! Any donations will be highly appreciated.

Thank you to my Sponsors
