The London Scheme

What it is

This London-wide scheme - to provide parents with an opportunity to try real nappies - has been running since July 2007

Check the list of boroughs here to see if your borough has joined the scheme.

Events, workshops and ‘nappuccinos’ are run in each participating borough. Residents may go to any event in any of these boroughs. Go to Where, what and who to find out what is going on.

Where else can you find information and support?

Go Real is a not-for-profit, independent organisation promoting Real Nappies. Previously a government-run campaign, Go Real offers in-depth information on everything you need to know about Real Nappies, drawing from the experience of a community of parents and expectant parents.

What else can you do to reduce waste?

Every year in the UK we throw away £12 billion worth of food which could have been eaten. Wasted food is a waste of money and a major contributor to climate change. If we all stopped wasting food that could have been eaten, it would have the same environmental impact as taking 1 in 4 cars off UK roads. The Love Food Hate Waste programme from WRAP (Waste & Resources Action Programme) that has lots of tasty leftover recipes, a portion calculator, top tips and date label advice to help us make the most of the food we buy.
