Liverpool’s city council is demanding a formal government apology for decades of hidden burial practices that left thousands of stillborn babies unmarked and forgotten — with families like Gina Jacobs, who spent 53 years searching for her son’s grave, now leading the charge. Over 1,000 babies were buried in mass graves in the Wirral alone, and more than 270 in Oldham — a system the Department of Health once called “appalling.” Now, campaigners and officials are pushing for national funding, a full review of past policies, and permanent memorials to honor these lost lives — even as the council vows to keep fees waived for families seeking answers.
