Service to be held for babies found in "mass grave"

Available for over a year

Service to be held for the families of babies found in a mass burial site in Oldham. From the 1950s to 1980s, bereaved parents were told their children would be buried with a "nice person" in an adult grave, but instead the bodies were placed in cardboard boxes and put into unmarked plots. Independent Oldham Councillor Maggie Hurley tells Âé¶¹Éç Radio Manchester more about it.
