Baby Loss, Grief & Love
S8, E8 - Funerals (Information & Support) ITV news about the importance of providing funeral support for baby's born under 24 weeks
In this weeks episode, Kelly is joined by team member Hayley. In this deeply emotional episode, they talk openly about baby loss, baby funerals and the painful lack of information many families face during the most unimaginable time of their lives.
Making Miracles Charity, who will also be appearing on ITV Regional News this week (19th - 23rd January 2026), to discuss funerals for babies born under 24 weeks’ gestation. Currently, the Children’s Funeral Fund does not cover funerals under 24 weeks, leaving grieving parents facing not only overwhelming emotional pain but unexpected financial pressure.
No parent ever expects to plan or make decisions about their baby’s or child’s funeral. Yet for many, these decisions come with confusion, isolation, and a lack of clear guidance on what options are available.
This episode explores:
- The emotional and financial burden of baby loss
- The gaps in support for families experiencing loss under 24 weeks
- How grief can resurface unexpectedly when navigating funeral arrangements
- Why access to clear information and choice matters
We believe every baby is loved and valued, no matter the gestation, and every family deserves dignity, compassion and support.
We also highlight the incredible work of John Weir Local Funeral Services (Kent), who offer free funerals for children aged 0–16, showing how community support can make a meaningful difference.
This episode is about awareness, honesty and ensuring that no family feels alone — and that everyone knows the options available to them.
