Give families help to buy reusable nappies and wipes
To give all pregnant women vouchers to buy cloth nappies and reusable wipes and information about using them, so that they don't have to use disposables.
Why is this important?
Reusable alternatives are easier to use than ever and the mountain of waste created by just one baby in disposables is shocking. They take far too long to break down and are clogging our rivers and waterways. I'm asking the government to provide vouchers to pregnant women to enable everyone to try cloth nappies. Even using them part time can make a huge difference. Some councils currently offer help, but it's not nationwide and many people don't even know the help is available.
