I am promoting the Sheffield Real Nappy Campaign and was interested in finding out about celebrity parents in Sheffield to tie in with the campaign and maybe getting some celebrity involvement when we re-launch in October.

:P :P :P :suspect:
Please expound....
Sheffield Real Nappy Campaign has been set up to promote real nappies and to provide parents with information to enable them to make an informed decision about what type of nappies you use for your baby. Disposables are the immediate choice that springs to mind but dig a bit deeper and you’ll find that they are not necessary the best, easiest or most convenient.
8 million disposables are binned very day in the UK. Around 4% of the nations household waste is made up of disposable nappies. Every baby in disposables will use approximately 5000 nappies from birth to potty and each nappy binned could take hundreds of years to rot in landfill sites.
Cloth nappies offer a convenient alternative. Don’t be put off by the images of yester-year, the vats full of boiling nappies, dangerous pins and cracked plastic pants. Modern day cloth nappies come in all shapes, sizes, style and designs. In comparison to disposable nappies the financial saving including washing can be up to £600 per child.
If you want anymore information on the benefits of cloth nappies, please visit the Sheffield Real Nappy Campaign website at www.srnc.co.uk

If you know anyone that wants any real nappies and kooshies. I have some.
I must admit that I enjoyed washing nappies and hanging them on the line.
(no , I don't want to wash any for anyone else though!)

good luck trying to convert the sheffield mums........i used terry nappies with my twins in the first couple of years, must have saved me a fortune. but NEVER met another mum who has used them!
Just out of interest, how environmentally friendly are these 'natural' disposable nappies that places like sainsburys sell?
now my twins are older and only using nappies at night, i do use disposable - mainly due to the sheer volume of wee!! - but would consider using these natural ones if they are kind to the environment even if theya re more expensive.

PaulTansley 03-10-2004, 18:06 We used Terry nappies on my first three children now in there twentys, and they don't like it...Bumbum.
Of course when they were babies, but my younger ones I used disposables.
They are convenient to say the least but the terry ones will simply save you money and look after the enviroment.
There great for traveling around bit if at home just soak the terry in a bucket using a sanitizer and hold your nose while you put them in the wash.
Terry nappies have there good points but fore ease the disposables come out on top.
Nappies!!?...... When I were a nipper me mam couldn't afford nappies. Me dad'd fill a sack wi' pine scented sawdust from t' mill, prop it int' corner and put me in it. Emptied it aht ev'ry week on a Sat'day on to t' roses and then put fresh sawdust in. Worked a treat. Looked a reight chuff on t' shoppin' trips though.
Never did me any 'arm!
A rose by any other name would not smell as sweet.
But you lot are missing the essential, burning question here amid your tales of sawdust and soiled linen. Don't just leave us hanging here JONNO80. Which dead famous celebrity sprogger do you have hanging on your family tree, for crying out loud?
