Leicester City Council, in partnership with local nappy advisers, has made a variety of Real Nappy lending kits available so that Leicester residents can try out washable nappies before buying.
In the UK we get through nearly 500,000 tonnes of disposable nappies every year. There is a non-wasteful alternative to the disposable nappy...
Why choose real nappies?
- Easy to use and clean
- Can be used again if you have another baby
- Can save you money
- You can line-dry rather than tumble dry them
- There are lots of materials and styles to choose from
- You can help reduce waste
- Wraps and Real Nappies can be washed at 40/60°C

Nappy Advisors can arrange to demonstrate how to use the different nappies before leaving you with a Real Nappy lending kit to try out at home for a 2 week period.
The kits will be available in small, medium and larger sizes to suit different age and weight babies. The washable nappies and wraps must be washed thoroughly before returning.
*A cheque for £150 will be required as a deposit for the kits. Cheques will not be cashed unless the kits are damaged or not returned.
