Nantwich united in remembrance and support on Saturday 11 October, with this month's Dabbers Dash community run dedicated to promote Baby Loss Awareness Week (October 9 to 15), through the national Sands Ribbon Run.

Starting from the Barony Park Pavilion, families, friends and runners of all ages took part in the 5km route around the Barony and along Sandford Road.

Whether walking, running, or wheeling, participants were invited to complete as much or as little as they wished, in an atmosphere filled with reflection, remembrance, and togetherness.

The monthly Dabbers Dash remains free, inclusive, and open to everyone, a true celebration of the Nantwich community spirit and its ability to unite for meaningful causes.

Dabbers Dash founder, Paul McIntyre, told Nub News: "Well done everyone on a fantastic community effort to support National Baby Loss Awareness Week with a Ribbon Run Dash in Nantwich.

"The local support was excellent and it was a joy to host visitors from as far as Lemmington and Shrewsbury.

"Thanks to Liz and her Protein Rebel team for supporting people with her energy gels, and to The Cat community radio for their continued support."

The Ribbon Run forms part of a UK-wide campaign led by Sands, the leading charity supporting anyone affected by pregnancy and baby loss.

Funds raised through the event help to provide vital bereavement support and increase awareness to help prevent future losses.

Adding an especially poignant touch to the weekend, local mother and campaigner Ella Amé Cooper once again created a beautiful and moving Ribbon Display in Nantwich town centre, a place for quiet reflection and remembrance.

On the morning of the Dash, she also hosted a stall at the Nantwich Town Family Market, giving people the chance to talk, learn, and share their own experiences during Baby Loss Awareness Week.
