At a time when the cost of living is of concern to everyone, parents of babies and young children are now able to benefit from a 15 per cent discount on reusable nappies. Hampshire County Council, Portsmouth City Council and Southampton City Council are collaborating with a number of online retailers to offer the discount.
Single-use disposable nappies make up around 6% of the average rubbish bin in Hampshire homes. By switching to reusables, residents can reduce how much waste is in their bin.
Also known as washable nappies, cloth nappies or real nappies, reusable nappies have developed significantly in the past decade and are a popular choice for many parents. To qualify for the offer, simply register your postcode via Hampshire County Council’s Smart Living webpage and you will then receive a discount code.
The following six online retailers are supporting the scheme:
If you’re unsure about reusable nappies, why not try them out first courtesy of a nappy library? Both Southampton Real Nappy Network and Eastleigh Nappy Library can loan you a reusable nappy kit to suit your needs.
