Supporting you Through a Child’s Funeral
Losing a child is every parent’s worst nightmare -something no family should ever have to face.
At Ian Hazel Funerals, we understand that nothing can take away your pain, but we’re here to support you with compassion, time and care as you say goodbye.
A compassionate guide for when every moment matters
Here For You Every Step
We know there is nothing more painful than losing a child. Whether you’d like a simple farewell, a quiet and private goodbye, or something more personal and meaningful, we’ll support you with warmth and understanding.
We’ll listen, guide you gently, answer every question and handle the arrangements with the utmost care.
What to do next
We offer a basic child’s funeral (up to the age of 18 years) to the following specifications at no cost.
Basic Provision
The basic funeral provision including services, staff, coffin and transport are provided for by the Children’s Funeral Fund (CFF). This covers burial or cremation for any child under 18, or stillborn after 24 weeks of pregnancy.
We’ll explain what help is available and handle all paperwork for you.
Personalised Farewell
We can help you arrange a burial or cremation, a religious or non-religious service, or a naming ceremony if that feels right.
You may wish to include favourite toys, music, poems or bright flowers — we’ll ensure every detail honours your wishes and your child’s memory.
Special Touches
For some families, creating memories can bring comfort later. We can help you with special touches like memory boxes or bears, always handled with sensitivity and only if you wish.
