We are often contacted by the media asking for case studies to help illustrate and put a personal context to their articles and programmes.

We have a wide number of parents throughout the UK who are willing to share with the media their own personal experiences.

If you would like any further information on this or would like to request a case study please contact:

As Sands continues to develop and grow as an organisation we are increasingly focusing our efforts to ensure that parents, their families, friends and health professionals know that we exist and what services we can offer.

As a result we have this year expanded the Sands press office to ensure that the media can help us spread the message about Sands, the issues surrounding stillbirth and neonatal death and the services and support that we offer.

The media are always looking for real life case studies for their programmes and articles so we'd like to say a huge thank you to all those who, often at very short notice, have made themselves available to tell their stories to journalists.

If you would like to join our media interviewee list then please contact Erica Stewart on 020 7436 7940 or email erica.stewart(at)uk-sands.org and we'll send you out a form to complete.

Please be assured that any information you give us on this form will be dealt with in the strictest confidence.

We look forward to hearing from you.
