Petition Restore the sure start maternity grant for bereaved parents.

More details

To entitle bereaved parents to receive the sure start maternity grant after the loss of a baby or multiple babies regardless if they have children or not. As parents in this situation are not currently eligible even after the financial hardships the families have already had to endure with funeral costs and in a very few cases headstone costs as most bereaved parents cannot afford them.
Please help these families get what they should be entitled to thank you
