About This Event

Why We Walk Starlight Walk is a chance to remember and honour babies who have died during pregnancy or shortly after birth. As darkness falls, people come together to walk under the stars, carrying memories and celebrating babies who will always be loved and remembered. Along the route, you'll walk alongside others who understand the impact of baby loss. Through moments of reflection, including the lighting of candles, Starlight Walk offers a powerful opportunity to remember, connect and ensure every baby is never forgotten About Sands Sands is the UK’s leading pregnancy and baby loss charity. We are here to support everyone touched by pregnancy loss or the death of a baby. Always.
