MORE bereaved parents in England will now be able to apply for a certificate to formally recognise the loss of their baby reports the BBC.
The government has removed a cut-off date that had meant only those who had had a pregnancy loss or miscarriage since September 2018 were eligible.
Certificates are now available, external to anyone who lost their baby before 24 weeks of pregnancy (or 28 if the loss was before October 1992).
Applicants must be aged at least 16 and live in England. More than 50,000 of the certificates, which are optional and free to receive, have been issued so far.
