Real Nappies

Introduction

East Ayrshire Council seeks to promote the use of reusable nappies to its residents- the real alternative to disposable nappiess. Not only are reusable nappies good good for the environment, they are economical, practical and very easy to use and look after.

East Ayrshire Councils is seeking to increase the number of real nappy users within East Ayrshire through working in partnership with health professionals, and parents/parents to be.

Unfortunately, real nappies are often not readily available in shops, and parents do not often have the chance to see, touch and feel real nappies, when deciding which type of nappy to use. If you already attend, or are about to attend parentcraft classes do ask your community midwife about real nappies. Community midwives all have access to demonstration packs which contain a range of real nappies for you to view.
