I’m running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to running 2k a day this January 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.

Why I’m Raising Money for Sands

Tuesday 30th Dec

I am raising money for Sands because of the vital support they provide to families affected by baby loss.

Until recently, I didn’t fully understand how many families experience this kind of loss, or how deeply it can affect them. Learning this has opened my eyes to the grief in a new way, and it made me realise that loss doesn’t just disappear with time. It stays with families, quietly shaping them, even if it isn’t always spoken about.

Sands offers comfort, understanding, and support to those who need it most. They are there for families when life feels overwhelming, and they also work to raise awareness and improve care, helping to create positive change for the future.

By fundraising for Sands, I hope to support their essential work and help ensure that families going through loss receive compassion, care, and understanding. Every donation, no matter the size, helps Sands continue to be there for those who need them.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this fundraiser and helped raise awareness for such an important cause.
