Azaelea Robb, who is a pupil at Micklands Primary School, is embarking on the challenge to raise money for SANDS, a charity that supports grieving families and provides training and research to help people better cope with losing loved ones. Described by her mum Tannika as 'very generous', Azaelea decided to walk 100km over the course of this month to help other families experiencing a similar loss to hers when her little brother Xylar passed away in 2017. The charity helped the Robb family after losing "beautiful" Xylar and, alongside "ensuring everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need", it also provides midwife and healthcare training and supports research into infant deaths to prevent other families from losing their children.
