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.

My story

Saturday 29th Aug
Hi, my name is Shannon Jackson. I’m doing the 5km walk in October for my baby. Me and my fiancé was on our first holiday together and we found out I was pregnant, we was really happy and so excited when we found out we was pregnant with our first. We already had names for a boy and girl and already planned our first holiday for when he/she arrived. A week after our holiday, I experienced heavy bleeding and really bad sharp pain and cramping, went to hospital over and over and over again as I knew something was wrong but I was told it’s normal to have bleeding and it’s normal to have cramps and everything seemed fine but I was booked in for a scan for reassurance. Sunday 26th July I had my scan and hearing them words in the room was heartbreaking. My mum and my fiancé have been my biggest supporters throughout this heartbreak and k can’t appreciate them enough for all they have done for me. I’m doing this for my angel who I never got to see/meet!
