The more that people know about Naturism, the better things will be for us all. Many people don’t know that they know a Naturist and assume that we are still that fringe minority on the edges of society. We understand the individual fears, possible complications and desire for an easy life, but we want to encourage you to help Naturism in the UK to become normal.
It’s daunting, but our campaign encourages you not to stress. If you don't routinely talk about your involvement in Naturism to friends, family, work-colleagues, neighbours etc., we are asking you to tell Just One Person, and that experience may give you the courage to tell a lot more.
People have found it easy to pick someone who would not be judgemental. A good place to start is to talk in a low-key way about a skinny dip on holiday or Naturist beach you ‘found’. Many people get a positive or sympathetic reaction. Feedback suggests that you will feel better having told someone – it may actually be a relief! Members can read many positive 'Just One Person' stories in the members' area.
As Naturists we are in danger of killing this natural life choice by fear. We need to talk about it for it to survive and be prepared to acknowledge the pursuit that enriches our lives.
