In August 2025 my grandson Caelan was stillborn at full term. I never got to meet him and I miss him terribly. His loss has had a huge impact on our family and my daughter Catriona and her partner George have benefited greatly from support from Sands (in New Zealand). This is why I would like to raise £1000 to help families affected by similar tragedies in Scotland.

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. Together, we are saving babies’ lives and improving maternity safety and bereavement care.

We can only achieve this with the amazing energies and efforts of our supporters. Thank you
