Project Integra has produced a leaflet to point out the alternatives to disposable nappies.  1 million nappies are thrown away in Hampshire each week, costing Hampshire's council tax payers £500,000 a year for disposal.  In two years, one child using disposable nappies will have used paper padding equivalent to 20 trees.

Real nappies are shaped and have have velcro fastenings for comfort and safety.  They can be washed at home, or various companies provide nappy laundering services.  If you would like a leaflet with more information, please ring 01962 845750.
