On the 11th October I gave birth to my first child Louis Peter Detoeuf, he was stillborn at 35 weeks and my whole world fell apart. SANDS booklets and online support were vitally important in the early days of my loss and helped me to realise that I wasn’t alone and that I should be feeling the way I was feeling. The work they do to support bereaved families is amazing and is a worthy cause.

I am running this March in memory of you Louis .. you are always loved and never forgotten and not a day goes by that I don’t think of you .. Nearly 6 years of wondering who you would have been. 

Join me and get moving this March! Jog 50 miles between March 1st and March 31st and show your support for families who've lost a baby. Sands want to ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. We want to campaign for change and support research so that fewer babies die and so that fewer families experience the pain of losing a baby. Whether you jog, walk or run to reach your 50 miles target, every step you take will help ensure no one faces the loss of a baby alone. Together we can continue do all that we can to stop families from experiencing this devastating tragedy.
