It's conclusive - Reusable Nappies are more environmentally friendly than disposable nappies. The Environment Agency updated their controversial report at the end of 2008.
Reusable nappies can reduce damaging emissions by up to 40%.
See this article or read the report (long!)
Thank you to all contributors to the blog!

HOW TO FIND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ON THIS BLOG
SEARCH ENTIRE BLOG - there is a search box at the top of this blog, which allows you to search on specific words, such as 'tots' or 'Clwt Twt'
SEARCH BY CATEGORY - - beneath each nappy description on the blog are the categories to which the nappy belongs. All types of nappies and related items now have a label with a description such as
'shaped nappy - requires wrap - sized'
this means the nappy belongs to the category of nappies which are elasticated and don't require folding and which require a separate waterproof cover and have different sizes, to fit different sized babies.
Now you can click on this label and see ALL nappies which fall into this category on one page.

I recieved some financial help from Edinburgh council in the form of Changeworks. They have a nappy library and regular 'nappy chats' and I used the cashback offer to fund my first prefolds.
The website is hard to find, but they also have information on the website of the Edinburgh Real Nappy Network - mothballed for now.
There is cashback for low income households, plus a nappy trial pack scheme which allows cloth to be tried for a few weeks for a small fee.
There is also a credit scheme for low income households.
West Sussex do a fantastic nappy scheme. You can claim a free starter pack until your baby is 4 months old.
The nappy set currently comprises 5 motherease sandy's, 5 motherease one size, a rikki wrap and an airflow wrap, 2 snap-in liner, 3 rolls of nappy liners and a wet nappy bag.
YOu can also claim £30 cashback over 18 months when you get a form signed by your health visitor (to confirm you are still using cloth)
Derby City council and Derbyshire county council do cashback, £25 back when £50 spent, proof of payment needed.
Camden (London) does money back and the shop in Chalton street is great. The lady gives advice on nappys and is very helpful. you can borrow nappies to try. They also stock some very useful clothes and things
Carmarthenshire have a nappy incentive scheme, they offer a free trail pack.
I recieved the medium, which was 6 Junior Joy prefolds, 1 Bambino Mio wrap, 2 proraps and a packet of paper liners.
Worcestershire Real Nappy Incentive scheme has just launched. They are offering residents in Hereford and Worcestershire £30 cashback on a £50 spend or a free prefold trial pack! Proof of purchase needed to claim cashback!
Swindon Real Nappy Network have successfully campaigned to get Swindon Borough Council to introduce a cash-back scheme. Wo-hoo!
North Tyneside Council also does a similar scheme, where you can either get £30 cash back on money spent on reusables, or a free starter pack.
Wiltshire Real Nappy Network operate a loan scheme and offer up to £30 cash back :)
Hi, Salisbury Real Nappy Network offer support and loan out try before you buy kits. They also have get togethers nd other things. They provide application forms for the Wiltshire cashback scheme mentioned earlier.
Hi,
In London - Real Nappies for London (www.realnappiesforlondon.org.uk) have a number of schemes in partnership with the various borough councils across london. You can get a voucher worth between £30 and £80 to spend towards real nappies and accessories at a number of named outletes (both 'real' and online) - you need to show proof of residence and provide a copy of your baby's (up to 18mt old) birth certificate. (then show proof of id when using the voucher). I'm in towerhamlets and got a £50 voucher. It can take a while to get your voucher though
Cambridge City Council have got about 15 free starter kits left to give away - a bucket, 12 prefolds, 2 Tots Bots, 4 Onelife, 2 Rikki wraps, 2 Nature Babies wrap and liners. Email cambridge@realnappy.net if you live in Cambridge and would like one! Hopefully Cambridgeshire County Council will be doing cashback in the New Year.

Cumbria Nappy incentive is planning to launch fully in Real Nappy Week, at the end of April. It's starting now with a small trial, and vouchers worth £45 (£70 for twins) will be sent out to anyone who has already registered for them, with a child under 18 months of age, as soon as they are printed. They can be used at retailers registered in the scheme (local businesses only)
There is no stipulation as to what can be bought, except it must be reusable nappies only, although they are allowing flushable liners.
It will be a case of finding who sells the nappies you want, amongst the registered sellers.

Hi, Leicestershire county council has a fantastic nappy advisor. She is soooo helpful, asks you a few questions and advises you which nappies to go for and you can buy direct from her at fantastically low prices, and if I want to order more She gave me discount codes for websites. I can pass these to friends and family too! If you wanted advise or discounts you can contact her her name is Faatima and if you google Leicester nappuccino it will take you to her number in councils website which is 07870953402. I love my nappies!!!! Xx
