Jenny Smith is raising money for Sands
In memory of Hope Arabella
Story
Thank you for visiting my Just Giving page. I am walking 310,000 steps in October to raise awareness of baby loss and fundraise for Sands, the stillbirth and neonatal death support charity. I am hoping to combine daily walking with bigger walks - by myself and with family and friends - to walk at least 310,000 steps!
In July, our baby daughter Hope died before she was born. Her estimated due date was October 12th, which falls in the middle of Baby Loss Awareness Week. Taking part in this walking challenge is an opportunity for me to take (loads of!) positive steps to remember our daughter during an especially poignant month.
