What are real nappies?
Real nappies are reusable cotton nappies - they are the best alternative to disposable nappies.

Why should I use them?
Real Nappies are more environmentally friendly because:

They are re-usable so they help to reduce the total amount of waste going to landfill

They reduce the risk of infection by ensuring sewage waste is properly treated instead of going to landfill

They will also save you money! Research has shown that using cotton nappies until your baby is potty trained is cheaper than buying disposables
