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.

Running 100K in May

Monday 20th Apr
Sands is a UK charity that supports people affected by pregnancy loss and the death of a baby. It is best known for helping families after experiences such as stillbirth, neonatal death, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)
What Sands does-
Support for families and loved ones
Sands offers emotional support through:
a free helpline email support online groups and local support groups resources for grieving parents, siblings, grandparents and wider family members
Their support is available whether the loss happened recently or many years ago. 
Improving maternity and bereavement care
They also work with hospitals, midwives and healthcare professionals to improve bereavement care so families are treated with compassion and sensitivity after baby loss. 

Research and prevention
Sands campaigns and funds work aimed at reducing baby deaths and improving understanding of why losses happen, including inequalities in outcomes. 
Background Why people value it
Many families describe Sands groups as one of the few places where they can speak openly with others who understand the experience firsthand. Community feedback online often highlights reduced isolation and the comfort of shared understanding.
