Real Nappy campaign Success
Following a long campaign led by Robin Lawrence and the Liberal Democrat Focus Team, Wolverhampton Council has decided to introduce a grant for new parents wishing to use washable nappies. Supported by West Midlands MEP Liz Lynne, Robin first raised this issue with the Council in 2004. Robin said "Thanks to our campaign and encouragement from other green campaigners, Wolverhampton Council has decided to make it easier for new parents to make the green switch to washable nappies. All of my children have used washables and I encourage other Park parents to take advantage of the council's £30 to switch to sustainable nappies too."
