Cloth Nappies Shining Nappy People As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and the well-being of the children in our care, we are transitioning to using mainly cloth nappies in both of our nurseries. We are also working on ways to support families to use cloth nappies at home through our community support groups and outreach work. Non-recylcable nappies 2.5 billion binned annually 90% end up in landfill 500yrs to break down 60%+ Plastic We believe that swapping non-recyclable nappies for resuable alternatives aligns perfectly with our mission to ‘build brighter futures’ and our core values, including ‘sustaining our planet, sustaining our community’. Why swap to cloth nappies? Cheaper over time Toilet training is often 6 months faster for babies when cloth nappies are used Switching could save you up to £1000 per child and have half the environmental impact! No harsh chemicals Non-recyclable nappies contain chemicals Well chosen c loth nappies can have fewer or even none This makes them healthier for a child’s delicate skin A better fit Cloth nappies provide an individualised fit, reducing the risk of leaks Plus, the soft fabric against the skin can be more comfortable Better for the planet Non-recyclable nappies take 500yrs to decompose in landfills Even eco-friendly alternatives take 50yrs Much of North London's nappy waste is also burned at the incinerator £70 Voucher Visit www.realnappiesforlondon.org.uk for helpful info. including explanations of different nappy types and info. on a voucher scheme worth up to £70 toward purchasing cloth nappies.
