Womens' Environmental Network needs your support

Women's Environmental Network (WEN) is a national charity and membership organisation which campaigns on environmental and health issues from a women's perspective. It educates, informs and empowers women and men who care about the environment.

The Environment Agency Lifecycle Study of Disposable and Reusable Nappies(LCA) which had concluded that neither disposables or washable nappies had a better or worse environmental performance is currently undergoing review. WEN, who had challenge the report, is dependent on membership and donations and have already incurred a £5000 shortfall in contributing to this review, with their expert consultants putting forward a fair case for reusable nappies. If they are to be enabled to continue the process and address the issue fully when the LCA is published at the end of February, WEN needs substantial donations to cover their costs in providing expert commentary and media representation. All of us, parents, babies, environmentally aware companies, the UK environment and the planet stand to gain from a fair outcome. WEN needs your support.

Please affiliate to WEN and make your donation online For more information email nappies@wen.org.uk

If you would like to become a WEN member from only £20/year(individual) or £35/year (group), please visit their website at:http://www.wen.org.uk/general_pages/support.htm
