Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Every day in the UK around 14 babies die before, during or soon after birth.That means nearly every two hours a family is faced with the devastation of the death of their baby.

Twenty five years ago we were one of those families when our son Jack died and was stillborn. On the day of his death, in the many months that followed, Sands played a huge part in supporting us - through their Helpline and a local volunteer group.

In June and July 2021 I am trekking 260 miles around the catchment of Hull York Medical School to raise money for Sands, you can find out more about my walk at: https://hullyorkfootprint.home.blog/

A donation to Sands is supporting their vision of a world where fewer babies die and helping to ensure that every bereaved family, wherever they live in the UK, gets the care and support they need, when they need it, for as long as they need it.
