Could you be a cloth nappy champion? Are you passionate about helping new families to adopt a more eco friendly approach to nappy use? Would you like to help out? As a Nappy Library Volunteer, you will support local families to explore and use reusable nappies with confidence.

Key responsibilities include:

• Meeting (in person or online) with parents to explain how reusable nappies work and introduce the contents of their loan kit.
• Preparing loan kits by washing nappies in line with Nappy Library guidance and repacking kits ready for hire.
• Managing loans through the booking system.
• Receiving returned kits, checking that all items have been returned in good condition, and arranging the return of security deposits.

There are also opportunities to support the Nappy Library by:

• Promoting the service through social media.
• Representing the Nappy Library at local parent and family events.
• Helping raise awareness at community sustainability and environmental events.

No previous experience with reusable nappies is required—training and support will be provided.

Volunteers who prepare loan kits can claim a contribution towards washing costs in line with the Nappy Library’s reimbursement arrangements. Volunteers can choose whether to act as an adviser (including kit refresh) only; as an admin volunteer or both.

What skills do I need?

No previous experience or qualifications are required but an interest in cloth nappies or the environment would be beneficial. Full training will be provided.
