DSF's 2026 charity of the year is SANDS, this was chosen by employees as the charity has supported many through difficult times.

Sands is the charity speaking up about pregnancy and baby loss, saving babies’ lives and supporting bereaved families. As the UK’s leading pregnancy and baby loss charity, we’re creating a community of compassionate and lifesaving changemakers, whose voices inspire change and turn understanding into action.
