Please DO NOT wash the slings/carriers without prior arrangement with Library Volunteers
If you do need to wash them follow the instructions below.
Washing instructions
· Read the washing label on the sling for guidelines, especially temperature and spin cycle use
· Line dry all hired slings to avoid wear and tear
· Only use unscented liquid detergent that does not contain any optical brighteners. A small amount of washing up liquid can be used as an alternative
· Please do not wash slings with buckles/lots of padding unless unavoidable. If spot cleaning is not enough, wash inside a pillowcase on a low setting
