Free* reusable nappy trial kits are available to Wealden residents.
Wealden District Council is once again supporting Reusable Nappy Week (24 April to 30 April 2023) by offering nappy trial kits to residents, who might be thinking about changing to a more financial and eco-friendlier version of nappies.
The world of washable nappies is not what is used to be - modern reusable nappies are advanced, easy to use and easy to care for systems that leave any hard work to the washing machine.
The average baby uses at least 4,000 nappies up to potty training and every year, three billion disposable nappies are used in the UK.
With the current economic pressures everyone is facing, making the switch can save families up to £1,000 (or more if used on subsequent children), the nappies use 98% fewer raw materials and are much kinder to children’s skin and the environment.
To try out Wealden’s nappy trial kit before buying a bulk pack, please contact recycling@wealden.gov.uk, or visit our website www.wealden.gov.uk or call 01323 443322.
*A £25 deposit is required which is refundable on the return of the nappies after the trial.
Free advice is available throughout the trial.
