Real nappies - save £500, protect the environment

Why use real nappies?

Baby wearing reusable nappy

Modern cotton reusable nappies may be healthier for your baby, are easy to use and can save you a substantial amount of money.

Using real nappies can save £500 per baby compared with disposables (this includes washing costs). And the days of fiddly nappies are well and truly over. Modern real nappies:

  • need no pins  
  • come with waterproof, comfortable and breathable nappy covers to ensure no leaks
  • come with biodegradable nappy liners which can be easily flushed down the toilet
  • can be washed in your machine.

We offer £54 vouchers for all new parents towards the cost of real nappies.

Environmental benefits

Disposable nappies for one baby for one year create one tonne of waste - the equivalent weight of a rhinoceros.

Used as recommended, real nappies not only preserve resources and prevent a huge amount of waste, they also use significantly less energy and therefore have a much lower carbon footprint.

Reusable nappies help you to protect your child’s future.
