• Supportive team emails and Team Sands Whatsapp group to get to know your team
• Free Sands running vest
• Once-in-a-lifetime experience which will help save babies’ lives and support anyone affected by the death of a baby
The difference you will make
Sands want to ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of time. We want to campaign for change and support research so that fewer babies die and so that fewer families experience the pain of losing a baby.
We all know someone who has lost a baby. So please join Team Sands and help us continue to be there for them.
''Absolutely do it! Sands is such a worthy cause and they will offer you support all the way along. I don't think I would have completed it if it wasn't for the motivation given by Sands along the way and knowing the differing the sponsorship will make to families.''
