REAL is easy to use
There’s no safety pin’s, soaking or boiling any more with real nappies, they’re so simple to use. They come in lots of bright and trendy styles that do up easily with poppers, Velcro or little plastic grips so the nappy fits snugly. A liner goes inside the nappy to keep baby dry and catch solids. Most liners are biodegradable and can be flushed away. Washable liners are also available. To prevent leaks - waterproof nappy wraps are available in trendy designs to cover the nappy.

Disposable nappies make up about 2.6% of the average household rubbish in a year. This is equivalent to the weight of nearly 70,000 double-decker buses and if you were to line them up from front to end the buses would stretch from London to Edinburgh.
More and more parents are saying no to disposable nappies as they realise that real nappies are a natural, easy and a cost-effective alternative to disposable nappies – and they don’t cost the earth!
Using real nappies reduces the amount of waste sent for incineration and also the amount of energy and non-renewable resources used to produce disposables.
