Funeral rules

Does anyone know if children count in the 30 limit? I've just read the guidance and I could t see it specified (whereas it is specified for support groups). Thanks in advance. I'm very sad I need to know this.

Probably, unless you're in Scotland where under 12s don't count

Seems clear to me they do. To quote:

Funerals are allowed with strict limits on attendance, and must only take place in COVID-19 secure venues or in public outdoor spaces unless in exceptional circumstances.

Funerals can be attended by a maximum of 30 people. Linked religious, belief-based or commemorative events, such as stone settings and ash scatterings can also continue with up to 6 people in attendance. Anyone working is not counted in these limits. Social distancing should be maintained between people who do not live together or share a support bubble.

Yes. 30 people of any age.

Apologies, should have said sad to read about your loss, may your loved one rest in peace.

Yes. Including babes in arms.
