November Starts with a Bang!

A busy week for Go Real HQ!  We dispatched Jon to Liverpool to take part in the LARAC (Local Authority Reycling Advisory Committee) conference, where he flew the flag for Real Nappies and tried to glean the priorities for waste.  Jon kept us all up to date on Twitter and Facebook but he is also going to blog on how the event went and so I will leave the detail to him.

This month we are concentrating on troubleshooting and there is a great exchange of advice happening on our facebook page.   One thing that is coming across loud and clear is a need for some washing advice and so we will be asking our manufacturer members for their advice and will add it to the website as soon as possible.

If you are looking for troubleshooting advice it is always worth checking out our Guide section, where you can find advice on potty training, night time nappies, using Real Nappies out and about and much more.  You can also email your queries to info@goreal.org.uk or give us a call on 01208 265941.

We were pleased, this week, to be able to present Catherine Geraghty from Cumbria with a collection of Baby Bee products from Burts Bees as part of our monthly competition.  This month the prize comes from Go Real member: Petit Guili who sell a range of eco friendly products as well as Real Nappies.  They are offering our November competition entrants the chance to win three beautiful wooden toys, just in time for Christmas!

We have also been busy welcoming three new members to the Go Real fold:  Nappy Go Lucky, Grace is Green and Harry's Cot.  Nappy Go Lucky and Grace is Green both provide online shops with a range of brands available plus accessories.  Harry's Cot has joined us as the manufacture of Doody Pants which they sell through their online shop, alongside other prominent Real Nappy brands.  We are also pleased that this week we have been able to make our new and improved Supporters Pages live which list all of the fantastic companies and organisations that help support Go Real

It seems that lots of our members have also been busy this week with Babykind announcing the introduction of the new Charlie Banana All-in-One nappy, Softbots launching a new questionnaire to help them tailor advice to customers and Bambino Mio introducing a limited edition heart print nappy cover.


If next week is this busy we might need a lay down!!
