New and expectant parents can find out about a range of services and products at a baby event in Lichfield.

The Guildhall will host the Burton Real Nappies event from noon on May 14 as part of Real Nappy Week and will feature demonstrations, stalls and information sessions.

Helen White, from Burton Real Nappies, said:

“Nappies have come a long way since the days of terry squares and pins.  These day’s washable nappies use the latest natural fibres to offer comfort and absorbency to rival any disposable nappy. They are also easy to wear and change as they have poppers and Velcro instead of pins.  Not to mention the funky designs they come in!

“Come along to the event and see for yourself as well as seeing lots of other great baby and maternity companies.”

As well as nappies, the event will feature baby clothing, a maternity fashion show, a free baby sensory session and a talk from the Water Babies group. Stalls will offer reflexology products, baby slings, gifts, clothing and hypnobirthing.

The event will also offer the chance for expectant mums to have an artwork painted on their bumps and have them photographed.
