Free Real Nappy trial pack
We are delighted to announce that, through our partnership with the Surrey Real Nappy Network, we are now able to offer a Real Nappy trial pack entirely free of charge.
Why try washable nappies?
Are you thinking about washable nappies but are not sure how to go about it?
Nearly 3 billion nappies are thrown away each year in the UK. 90% of these end up in landfill, where they take hundreds of years to decompose.
To help reduce this burden on landfill and its potential environmental impact, Epsom & Ewell Borough Council has teamed up with the Surrey Real Nappy Network to offer you the opportunity to try a carefully selected pack of washable nappies.
Many new and expecting parents are unaware of how cheap and easy washable nappies are to use. On average, over a two-year period, a baby could use over 5,000 disposable nappies. To keep the same baby in washable nappies would require only 24 nappies, saving you hundreds of pounds. You could save even more by passing down washable nappies to younger siblings.
Why order a free Real Nappy Trial Pack?
You might think that washable nappies mean terry squares, smelly nappy buckets and lots of unpleasant cleaning. But washable nappies have come on a long way since the days of terries.
Our Real Nappy trial pack is made up of a variety of washable nappies, at no cost to yourself, to give you the chance to find out which best suits you and your baby.
All the washable nappies offered are easy to use, cost a fraction of the price of disposable nappies and help to reduce landfill waste.
