Story

In September 2021 our friend’s son, Torin, tragically died. He lived for just under one hour, then the darkest period set in for his family.

We saw the heartbreak, despair and grief but also unimaginable strength from two people going through the worst loss any of us can ever imagine.

It is a privilege to be able to do this night-time hike up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) with Torin's Mummy, Lorraine, and to be able to raise money to support families and to fund research into saving babies' lives.

So please sponsor us if you can, to help Sands to support more families to put one foot in front of the other. Love Lou and Team ‘Here comes the sun’ 🌞
