I’m swimming in November for families facing baby loss
I’ve committed to swimming this November 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 and provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals so that fewer babies die and fewer families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.
Thank you.

🏊♂️ 1st Swim Done – 1KM Completed! 💙🧡
Sunday 1st NovWell, that’s the first one in the bag! 💪
Today I completed my first 1KM swim for the Sands November Swim Challenge! 🏊♂️
As some of you know, I’ve been on a bit of a health kick recently following a few health scares, and swimming has become a big part of getting myself fitter and healthier.
So I thought, why not put all those lengths in the pool towards something that really matters?
I’m taking on this challenge to raise money for Sands, a fantastic charity supporting families affected by pregnancy and baby loss. 💙🧡
1KM down, plenty more lengths to go! It’s a great feeling to have made a start, and knowing it’s for such an important cause makes every length worthwhile.
If you can spare a few pounds to sponsor me, I’d really appreciate it. Every donation, no matter how small, makes a difference.

Thanks so much to everyone who’s supported me so far!
Here’s to the next 1KM! 🏊♂️💪
