Local council financial incentives

Added 27th of July 2007

---

Many local council offer financial incentives when buying cloth nappies. Exactly how much you get depends on the area that you live in. In my area (North Warwickshire), if you spend £50, you can claim £25 back. It was very easy to do, I simply downloaded a form from their website, took it to my health visitor to sign (to prove I was using cotton), posted it and the cheque arrived in a couple of weeks! Please note: you need to include a receipt, so if are hoping to claim back money spent on this website, ask the seller to down load the receipt form, and include it with your nappies. Receipts can also be included if you have paid via Paypal.

Here are a few links to help you find out what's available in your area.
