Buying washable nappies and the associated bits and pieces can cost a pretty penny, which may put some people off buying them in the first place.
To help with this, a number of Local Councils offer certain incentives to their residents for using real nappies.
Why?
If you think of it from their point of view, the more people in their area who use washable nappies, the fewer are filling up their waste piles with disposable nappies.
What?
Even in these constrained times, councils are offering a range of the following incentives:
Cashback on your purchase of washable nappies - make sure you keep your receipt to send with your application form.
Trial kits - give a deposit and your council could send you a trial kit to start off with.
Free samples of washable nappies
Low interest-rate loans to cover the initial outlay
How?
Contact your local council by phone or try searching 'nappies' in the search bar of their website. Print off or request an application form, and hey presto - washable nappy help is coming your way!
