Memorial Book for pregnancy/baby loss prior to 24 weeks in England

Petition Details

We want to mirror what is being done in Scotland and create Memorial Book for those who have experienced a pregnancy or baby loss prior to 24 weeks.

Along with the book, those who have experienced a loss will get a commemorative certificate which is intended to give recognition and comfort.

Additional Information

One in four pregnancies end in loss. It can have devastating effects on a family.

This option needs to be voluntary as it will not be the right choice for everyone.
