My Story

Saving babies' lives. Supporting bereaved families. 

I've run the 2026 London Marathon for Sands .The funds I raised so far will help support anyone who has been affected by pregnancy loss or the death of baby, as well research understanding why a baby might die. 

Sands is made up of staff and volunteers who work together to ensure that anyone affected by the death of a baby has access to compassionate, experienced support. They offer one-to-one and group support through our various bereavement channels, local groups and Sands United football teams, the family and remembrance events and  provide virtual and physical bereavement resources such as memory boxes.

They work to save babies' lives by amplifying the voices of bereaved families and healthcare professionals, campaigning for change in policy and practice, and funding research to understand why babies die.
