Story

This April, our team is coming together to take part in the April Jogging Challenge 2026, a marathon event on 1 April 2026. We are running not just for fitness, but to honour and support families who have faced the unimaginable loss of a baby. Each step we take is a tribute to every much-loved baby gone too soon!

My daughter Jessica lost her first baby at 27 weeks (our first grandchild) Olivia, she never took her first breath or opened her eyes or cried. She never got the chance to grow up and meet her family as we didn't get the chance to meet her and watch her experience life!

I am so proud of how my daughter Jessica,

she is brave and she is stronger than she gives herself credit for! As a family the loss is still hard to accept, and although Jessica went on to have two more beautiful children, Olivia is never forgotten ❤️

So for me the opportunity to raise money Sands (Stillborn and Neonatal Death Society) a charity that was there for us all when we needed them. I am jogging 45k through April and would appreciate any support however small you could offer!
