However, if a baby dies after 24 weeks of gestation the costs of burial or cremation are covered through the Children’s Funeral Fund for England. We ask that the Government extend this already existing Fund to provide for parents who wish to bury their child of under 24 weeks gestation, or have an individual cremation.
