We are pleased to be welcoming back Wrap a Hug and The Hackney Real Nappy Network to our November coffee morning!

Wrap a Hug is a friendly sling library and consultancy based in east London. We offer sling library sessions in Tower Hamlets and Hackney, workshops, and private consultations. We stock a wide range of slings and our service is personalised to suit your needs. At Wrap a Hug, we'll book you in so can come to try some slings on, get a fitting with your own slings, learn new skills, help you feed in the sling, and we're here to help you navigate the rather overwhelming world of babywearing! The sling library is inclusive and everyone is welcome.

The Hackney Real Nappy Network is an informal network of parents who aim to promote and support local parents to use reusable nappies successfully. We provide reusable nappy demos and meet, give and take events around Hackney.
