Pilot Reusable Nappy Programme 

The price of disposable nappies is now currently higher in Belarus than in Ireland while the average wage remains a quarter of what we earn. We are appealing to any body with second hand re-usable nappies or nappy covers, especially in larger sizes, to please help out by donating those which they no longer need. The nappies will be going to two different projects:

*In Cherven's children's orphanage there are many bedridden children with severe disabilities from the ages of 5 to sometimes 30 years of age.
For those parents and single mothers in the community who have children with special needs or severe disabilities who are nappy dependant this is a huge financial burden. We wish to encourage and help those parents especially who are striving to keep their children at home, rather than an orphanage, despite the the lack of support or facilities for them in the community.

For more information please email tessa.beth.oconnor@gmail.com

Important Information!

What donations are we looking for?

Covers are the most useful to us as they wash the best in the hard water but all cloth nappies are also very welcome!

Pre-fold inserts, regular inserts and boosters would also be brilliant to receive.  The bigger the sizes the better as the oldest 'children' are in their twenties and are already adult sized.
