Baby Loss Certificate Scheme

Overview

A Baby Loss Certificate Scheme is being developed, as a way for parents who have experienced the loss of a child before the end of 24 weeks of pregnancy to obtain formal recognition of their loss.

If you or someone close to you have been affected by loss of a child in pregnancy and you would like to access information, support or counselling, you can find links to relevant organisations at

Why your views matter

We are asking for your help to shape how the Scheme will operate.
