Why North Somerset Nappy Alliance?

NSNA is a voluntary organisation. Gathering together the council, sellers, health professionals and enthusiastic parents, the North Somerset Nappy Alliance will help to raise the profile of using washable nappies across the county, starting in Weston.
Although I am also a seller, I am committed to giving customers a choice. I believe that spreading the word about washable nappies is a separate issue to the business of selling! North Somerset is a rural county that is spread across a wide area. Unlike Bristol, where information and services are concentrated and easy to access, North Somerset needs a place for parents to go to for impartial advice and information. The North Somerset Nappy Alliance will fill this gap and help move towards a greater awareness that the difference using washables nappies can make to our environment, and how easy, simple and inexpensive it can be!

Nappy Natters

Want to see washable nappies for yourself? Try some on your baby? Talk to experienced parents and sellers?
We are hoping to set up Nappy Natters across North Somerset so you can do just that. Once a month, there will be a Nappy Natters for you to come and see some nappies for yourself. There will be some trial nappies for you to try on your baby while you have a drink and a natter. There will be room for you to feed and change your baby, refreshments, room to play, sellers to talk to, experienced parents to encourage you, hire kits to book etc etc!
Our first one will be arranged after the Nappy Fashion Show. Sign up to our mailing list by emailing us (washablesinweston@googlemail.com), or come along to the Show and find out more.
