'Eco-friendly' disposables--where to buy in Cambridge?

8 replies

I'll be in Cambridge with dd2 all next week and while I'm too lazy to carry my cloth nappies there and back, I don't really want to have her in pampers or whatever all week either. Does anyone know where I could buy (relatively) ecofriendly disposables in Cambridgeeg Moltexso that I don't have to take a week's supply with me on the train?

Sainsbury's sell Nature Boy and Girl disposables which are pretty env-friendly. Not from Cambridge but there surely must be a Sainsbury's?

Thanks, there is and my sister (who I'm staying with) goes there all the time. Haven't used the Nature Boy/Girl ones before.

You can get Moltex and Tushies from 'Daily Bread' cooperative in Kilmaine Close off Kings Hedges Road in Kings Hedges - very close to the A14 to the north of Cambridge.
Sorry to give such a geeky response but its such a fab shop (at least for sad mums like me with a sort of hippy v mad consumer schizophrenic nature). Only go if you're more disciplined than me though, I'd end up not taking cloth to save space but then dragging a a sack full of new nappies home on the train. Ooh, its got a cafe too by the way. Hope you have a nice time in cambridge

The other alternative is 'Arjuna' on Mill Road, which I think stocks Moltex.

I didn't know about Daily Bread, Croak; does it do food type stuff too?

Might see you in there sometime...

Gizmo · 23/07/2004 16:50

Oh, and yes, there is a Sainsbury's!!!!!

Thanks. My sister lives off Mill Road so will pay a visit to Arjuna. Probably won't make it to Daily Bread, sorry Croak

Just to confirm Arjuna does sell Moltex and all other kinds of yummy goddies (not that Moltex nappies are yummy). Have fun in Cambridge.

Gizmo - have never heard of the daily Bread - is it worth a cycle up there sometime?

Oops, I forgot about Arjuna - thats great too and loads more convenient than Daily Bread.
Cazzybabs and Gizmo - Daily Bread does do food stuff - absolutely loads as its massive (a warehouse - dp calls it 'eco Aldi' ) and is definately worth a cycle out to (not a very picturesque area unfortunately) but probably not planning your holiday around
