Welcome to Surrey Sands

Sands are a national self help organisation and registered charity, established to support the parents of babies who have died during pregnancy or soon after birth. The charity is divided into a network of local groups of which Surrey Sands is one. We are all volunteers, but more importantly we are all bereaved parents ourselves enabling us to offer empathic support.

The impact of babyloss is underestimated by anyone who has not endured the experience. Everyone at Surrey Sands understands what you are going though and would like to help in any way we can. In the first instance please contact our helpline.

AGM 9th July 2009 7.30pm Stoneleigh Library Community Room
Please email the Chairman in advance if you wish to volunteer your services to the new Committee.
