Each year eight million disposable nappies are thrown away every day, which take a couple of hundred years to decompose. This is why if you have been thinking about giving reusable nappies a try, then now is the time.
To help reduce the amount of nappies being thrown away every day, the council offers Torfaen residents a £30 voucher towards the costs of your first purchase of reusable nappies and wipes.
Maria Challenger in the waste team is always happy to talk to people about the scheme, and help them get started on their reusable nappy journey.
Contact Maria today by phoning 01495 762200 or emailing waste@torfaen.gov.uk

Pob blwyddyn mae wyth miliwn o gewynnau’n cael eu taflu pob diwrnod, ac maen nhw'n cymryd cannoedd o flynyddoedd i bydru.
Dyma pam, os ydych chi wedi bod yn meddwl am ddefnyddio cewynnau y gallwch eu hailddefnyddio, mae’n amser da rhoi tro.
I helpu i leihau nifer y cewynnau sy’n cael eu taflu pob dydd, mae’r cyngor yn cynnig taleb gwerth £30 i drigolion Torfaen i helpu tuag at gostau y tro cyntaf i chi brynu cewynnau i’w hailddefnyddio.
Mae Maria Challenger yn y tîm gwastraff bob amser yn falch i siarad â phobl am y cynllun ac i’w helpu i gychwyn ar eu taith gyda chewynnau i’w hailddefnyddio.
Cysylltwch â Maria heddiw trwy ffonio 01495 762200 neu e-bostio waste@torfaen.gov.uk
