Bloom and Nora

Bloom and Nora started with reusable nappies with the aim of cutting down environmental waste and creating products that do not contain nasty chemicals. Fiona Smyth, the founder, designed reusable nappies herself for her new-born baby girl. After realising that period products also contain plastic and chemicals, she began designing reusable pads again for her daughter.
