Sands highlights our amazing volunteers by holding Volunteer Awards: a chance to say thank you for the incredible support and contribution that our dedicated volunteers make across the UK to support bereaved families and anyone affected by the death of a baby.
This year's winners were revealed at a ceremony during Sands Conference on Saturday 23rd November in London.
This event recognises the contribution of all volunteers and rewards the winners for their dedication and commitment.
