Story

On December 31st 2018 i got the worst news to say that my unborn child no longer had a heartbeat. 3 days later on January 3rd at 19 weeks i delivered a precious little baby boy who we named Georgie.

I have always wanted to do a skydive then once i started working at Healthwatch Darlington my work friend Jamie told me he had done a skydive for mans health and he persuaded me to do a jump with him. Any donations would help massively for this amazing charity.

Sands, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity, operates across the UK: supporting anyone affected by the death of a baby; working in partnership with health professionals to ensure that bereaved parents and families receive the best possible care; and promoting improvements in practice and funding research that could help to reduce the loss of babies’ lives.

We depend on the amazing energies of our supporters to raise the vital funds that we need to deliver the wide range of services that we offer. #TeamSands
