Lost birth certificate
Sorry, I'm not entirely sure where I should post this...


My Wife has lost/misplaced her Birth Certificate.
Does anyone know how I go about getting a replacement?

Thanks in advance

    Had a new one issued in a couple of hours near Kings Cross (I was born in LB Camden)

    Obviously locations vary but the principle is the same.

    There;s a fast and slow service online. I think the slower service is only like £7? I haven't ordered anything in a while though
