You can save around £500 (WEN 2006) by using real nappies and washing them at home. And you can save even more by using them for your second or third child or buying them second-hand. Some real nappies have a good resale value. You can find retailers of both new and second-hand real nappies, laundry service providers or get more information on the benefits of using them from real nappy consultants, advisors and real nappy networks.
For more information on Real Nappies, please visit the Real Nappy section on the Waste Aware Scotland website.
