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.

Baby and child loss month❤️
Friday 18th SepToday, I want to talk about something that is incredibly close to my heart — baby and child loss.
Losing a baby or a child is a pain that no parent should ever have to experience. It is a loss that changes you forever, and yet so many families are left to grieve in silence.
Behind every loss is a family. A mum. A dad. Siblings. Grandparents. A whole family whose lives have been changed forever by a little life that was loved, wanted and cherished.
And although we can never take away the pain, we can make sure those families know they are not alone. I myself have experienced this and still grief through it all, it doesnt get better you just learn to deal with it better.
That is why I am starting this fundraising journey — to raise awareness, to honour the babies and children who are no longer here, and to support families who are having to navigate the unimaginable.
I want to help break the silence around baby and child loss. I want people to feel able to talk about their babies and children, to remember them, to say their names, and to grieve without feeling that they have to hide their pain.
Every donation, no matter how big or small, can help. Every share helps spread awareness. And every conversation helps remind a grieving parent that their child matters, their love matters, and their loss matters.
This isn’t just a fundraiser.
It’s about remembrance.
It’s about awareness.
It’s about compassion.
And most importantly, it’s about making sure these precious little lives are never forgotten.
If you’ve experienced baby or child loss, I see you. If you’re supporting someone who has, thank you for being there. And if you’ve never experienced this kind of loss, I hope you can help us create a world where grieving families feel supported and understood.
Please support, share and follow this journey if you can.
For every baby.
For every child.
For every family.
And for every little life that will forever be loved. 🤍
