Courteney runs for Sands – baby loss charity
March 20, 2026
👋 Hi everyone and happy Friday. We are coming to you to ask if anyone can donate the cost of their morning coffee to support our team mate Courteney, who is running for an incredible cause and has to meet her £270 target.
💔 Did you know that thousands of parents and families across the UK face the profound heartbreak of pregnancy and baby loss each year.
🙏 Courteney is running for Sands – baby loss charity, in memory of her sister who would be turning 21 this year, the charity is very close to her and her family’s hearts, and she would like to raise as much money as she can, so that they can continue their incredible work, of supporting families every day/ month/ year – who go through the trauma of losing a baby.
🩵 Sands charity supports families through every step of their journey. Sadly, around 13 babies die each day in the UK shortly before, during, or soon after birth. This includes stillbirths and neonatal deaths, with thousands of families affected every year. At least 1 in 6 pregnancies ends in miscarriage, adding to the many experiences of early pregnancy loss that often go unspoken. These heartbreaking realities highlight why Sands’ work is so vital, providing compassionate support, raising awareness, campaigning for better care, and funding research to help prevent future losses and ensure no family faces this alone.
