The Real Nappy Project:

News Flash!

The Real Nappy Project is a small, friendly project offering advice, support and incentives to families who wish to try reusable nappies on their baby.
We are based in Leith, and run regular events across Edinburgh and the Lothians.
We offer free information sessions, drop-in 'nappuccino' coffee mornings, and we attend community events, antenatal classes and baby groups on invitation.
Parents can apply for a Trial Pack or for a Lending Kit, both for a subsidised fee of £12.00. Those families on a low income may be eligible to receive one of these incentives free of charge, in addition to a voucher towards the purchase of nappies from selected Edinburgh retailers.
Please get in touch with any questions, to find the next event nearest to you, or to apply for an incentive.

Why use real nappies? The benefits are....

They're easy to use! Gone are the days of pins, plastic pants and boil washing
They're funky! Real nappies come in a variety of colourful styles and fabrics
They save money!

Even with the cost of washing, they could save you hundreds of pounds compared to the cost of disposables
They're reliable! Well-fitting nappies + breathable wraps = no leaks!
They reduce waste! Cut your household waste by half and save 4000 disposables going to landfill
