Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page in memory of our Beautiful Baby Boy, Caleb.
Caleb, was born sleeping on 30.09.10 having died just hours earlier. There was no cause found for his death. On that day our world fell apart but we are determined to make him forever proud and to live our lives in his memory.
On Sunday 13th May I will be running the Great Bristol 10K for my son, Caleb. This is much further than I am used to running so will be a challenge for me. I will be running with at least 40 other runners for Bristol Sands as the charity approaches its 40th anniversary.
I want to do this as a tribute and in memory of Caleb but also to raise money for SANDS.
The SANDS charity supports anyone affected by the death of a baby and also promotes research to reduce the loss of babies lives. 17 babies are stillborn or die shortly after birth every day in the UK. This shocking figure, the loss of 6,500 babies every year, is something the public is not generally aware of. Most people think stillbirths don’t happen in the 21st century. Yet stillbirth in the UK is 10 times more common than cot death.
SANDS have been a massive support to us and this is why we are now asking for your generosity in supporting this amazing, worthwhile cause.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
