Nappies
Please consider using real nappies. Real nappies are reusable and washable. They are easier to use than you might think and can work out cheaper in the long run than disposable ones. Leeds Cloth Nappy Library offer support to cloth nappy users and provide a lending facility.
If you are using disposable nappies, please bag them up before you put them in your black bin.
