2026 Ribbon Run Virtual

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.

Forever -1

Wednesday 19th Aug
In 2008 just shy of my 20th birthday I went for my 20 week scan to see our 2nd baby.  We was given that dreaded look, and received the heartbreaking words “I’m sorry”! 5 days later I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy who we named TJ after his dad. A post mortem revealed that TJ had a condition called bilateral renal agenesis, a condition which affects 1 in 5000 babies. This meant that TJ didn’t have any kidneys which also meant there was no fluid around him to protect him and he was being crushed by my organs.

Tj has always been and always will be a part of our family. He’s my son and I love him more than anything. X
