Aberdeen SANDS receives no statutory funding and so we are totally reliant on donations to continue our services to bereaved parents and families.

We provide many items to Aberdeen Maternity Hospital, these include memory boxes, telephone cards, toiletries, baby clothes, camera SD cards and medical equipment such as Cuddle Cots and Blood pressure monitors. We have just recently funded the refurbishment of the baby room, waiting room and delivery rooms in Rubislaw Ward at AMH.

We also fund Bereavement Training days for midwifes, student midwifes and Health Visitors and staff to attend training days elsewhere.

Fundraising Events

If you are planning organising a fundraiser event please get in contact with us as fundraisers MUST  be registered with UK Sands.  We can also support you with your registration and keep a stock of t-shirts, collection tins, balloons etc  locally. We can also advertise your event on our Facebook page.

If you wish all or part of the money raised to come to Aberdeen SANDS you will need to stipulate that on your registration form.

Online Fundraising Via Enthuse

If you are setting up an online fundraiser via Enthuse the money will go directly into Aberdeen SANDS account. All donations will be used to support bereaved parents in Grampian and Scotland.
