Welcome to the website of Solihull Real Nappy Network!

Solihull Real Nappy Network (SRNN) was set up by Katherine Brown, mum to Cerys and Rhiann. Cerys wore cloth from a few days old until she was dry day and night aged just 23 months! Rhiann was born in June 2009 and was been cloth bummed from birth to potty training just before Xmas 2012. Katherine set up the nappy network to share her love of cloth with other parents in Solihull and the surrounding area. She is not a nappy agent and runs the network voluntarily, alongside caring for Cerys and Rhiann and working part time. Due to work and family commitments, in December 2011 she handed over responsibility for the monthly Nappuccinos to Yvette Hill.

Please note that since the closure of the Birmingham City Council Real Nappy promotion office, all Birmingham City Council residents are welcome to contact SRNN for advice and information.
