You asked
How would I obtain a copy of my live birth certificate please?
We said
Thank you for your enquiry.
Unfortunately, we do not hold the requested information.
The General Register Office (GRO) may be better placed to help you. The GRO hold a central copy of all birth, adoption, marriage, civil partnership and death registrations for England and Wales. Their service allows you to search the historical birth and death indexes and order copies of registrations in a variety of formats including certificates, PDFs and Multilingual Standard Forms.
They can be contacted via the following web address: https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/.
Additionally, it may also be worth contacting the NHS Health and Social Care Information Centre. Please see the following link to their website: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/health-and-social-care-information-centre.
