Sure Start Maternity Grant
I understand that grants are based on the baby being the only child in the household - does that mean that if someone has received a grant for their first pregnancy, but that baby was stillborn, they are entitled to the grant if they become pregnant again?
i dont think so
regs allow for a second award for adoption/child arrangement orders but not for a birth after a still born if youve already had an award
Reg 3A SFM & FE regs
Thanks - can you link to the guidance please as I’m struggling to find it
They are entitled for the subsequent pregnancy, as they do not currently have another child in their family.
See Reg 5A here.
Fab thank you
