AS part of real nappy week, the York and North Yorkshire Waste Partnership have given away a pack of reusable cloth nappies worth £100 to competition winner, Emma Hall, of Kirbymisperton.

It is estimated that using real nappies can save parents up to £500 and they are kinder to the environment- disposable nappies can take more than 250 years to break down in landfill sites.
