Ecobubs wool pocket nappies

As from June 2010 Ecobubs will be increasing the price of the wool pocket nappies to £22. Meanwhile you can still purchase them at £17.99 until the end of May. We are currently out of stock of every colour in the medium size, but have the large size if you would like to stock up for later at the current price.

road safety campaign - a video everybody should watch!

This is a video everybody should watch. Made in australia by an organisation called TAC (the transport accident commission).

Cars are fantastic mode of transport but we cannot forget they are lethal machines... the responsability that we have for other lives and wellbeing, and for our own lives, is huge!

Drink and driving is heavily featured in the video, but i suppose another cause more pertinent to new mums and dads is sleepness.

green me new blog

welcome to the new green me notebook/blog. we have had a blog since june 2007 green-me.co.uk/greenme.html but due to technical reasons from blogspot we had to create this new one, which has a new address http://green-me-notes.blogspot.com/ .

this blog is an extra resource for green me shop. here we will be posting information about how to use and care for your washable cloth nappies and baby carriers, and about all the news and updates.

on the left hand side you can find the categories for this blog, such as the dates when we will be at greenwich market and green fairs, etc.

we would love to hear from you through the comments, or if you prefer by email at green-me[at]hotmail.com. so if there is anything you would like to know just ask!

Ecobubs wool pocket nappies back in stock

We are pleased to announce that we are back in stock for the Ecobubs wool pocket nappies. It took us four months to have them back since we started having low stock in November 2009.

Now we have all colours and sizes back in stock plus a new colour, chocolate & cream stripes. 

Reclaiming Birth - March to Whitehall

RECLAIMING BIRTH: AN INVITATION TO THE EVENT OF THE YEAR: A MARCH THROUGH LONDON TO WHITEHALL TO DELIVER A PETITION TO THE HEALTH MINISTER & LETTERS TO THE PRIME MINISTER:

This government really needs to understand that there is a lot of strong feeling about the state of the maternity services, nothing would demonstrate that more than 1000's of bumps and babies and people walking together to demonstrate their belief that we need to reclaim birth back from the machine and to demand the government turns all the rhetoric into action - no more policy but real, tangible change in every community throughout the country

Anyone who has a link into other groups such as the WI / doulas / MSLCs / yoga groups / schools /community groups etc - please mobilise them all, it would be so good to get all the generations turning out to support the provision of humane and holistic birth as a right for all women

PLEASE, PLEASE DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT THERE AND TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO COME ON THE DAY. THERE HAS BEEN A GREAT DEAL OF WORK DONE TO GET THIS ORGANISED - THE POWER OF PEOPLE ON THE STREETS CANNOT BE BEATEN - LETS GET OUT THERE AND ADD OUR VOICE TO THE DEMAND FOR CHANGE

Many thanks for your support
