Crematorium & Cemetery Fees
The government announce The Children’s Funeral Fund in 2019, this fund covers the cost of the crematorium or cemetery fees for a stillborn child after 24 weeks of pregnancy or a child up to the age of 18 years.
This means there would be no cremation or burial fees to pay.
Gaunts of Kidderminster also offers a complimentary £50 flower allowance towards a floral tribute for a child’s funeral, provided through Gaunts Florist. We hope this small gesture can bring comfort during an incredibly difficult time, helping families create a meaningful and personal farewell for their little one.
