2026 November Swimming Challenge

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.

Swimming in memory of my son

Friday 16th Oct
This November, I'm swimming in memory of my son Pádraig who died on 27th September 2025.
Since March, swimming has been a huge part of helping me through my grief both physically and mentally and I want to use that now to be able to give back. SANDS is such an important charity within the baby and infant loss community so raising vital funds will go toward helping families like ours, through the worst time of their lives.

Thank you to my Sponsors
