That this House notes that over 500 miscarriages occur daily in the UK and that many women have to resort to using makeshift materials to collect baby loss remains; further notes the recommendations of the 2023 Pregnancy Loss Review that the NHS should develop and deliver a Compassionate Clinical Care Kit including a receptacle and a container in which to collect and store the baby’s remains; applauds Laura Corcoran and the Dignity Care Network for developing the Miscarriage Collection Cradle and Storage Container for safe and respectful collection and storage of baby loss remains; and urges the Government to implement the recommendations of the 2023 Pregnancy Loss Review including providing a baby loss kit via the NHS when a miscarriage is expected or likely to take place in a home or clinical setting.
