Cloth Nappy Rebates from council across Australia, current April 2024.

In this blog post, we endeavour to share and link to the various councils and local governments currently offering cloth nappy rebates throughout Australia. If your council is currently offering a rebate for cloth nappies or reusable menstrual products and we haven't included them, please send us a message and we'll get them added.

Please note: This blog post is a work in progress and we will add to it throughout April 2024, as we hear back from councils to confirm their rebate program is ongoing.
