BEACH LOVERS
We have a growing team of Regional Beach Officers. Their role is to ensure that information on our naturist beaches (such as suitable travel routes, parking, access, safety and facilities) is accurate, up-to-date and informative; as well as coordinating access to local beaches; promoting their use by naturists and the general public; maintaining contact with local authorities, landowners and others that manage access to beaches and lobbying for more signage.
Our team of volunteer Beach Officers cover designated beaches or coastline. As well as coordinating access to local beaches and promoting their use by naturists and the general public, the role might also include organising Beach Days, skinny dips and clean-up events. So if you love visiting beautiful bare beaches and could help others access them too, then this is the ideal role for you! This exciting role is full of variety and is ideally suited for anyone interested in sun, sea and sand.
Besides having a knowledge of naturist beaches in their area (or a willingness to acquire this); good research and recce skills and an enthusiasm for promoting naturist beaches to the wider public are needed. It is highly flexible and will depend on the availability of the volunteer, the seasonal nature of the role and the need to address any particular issues associated with beaches in the locality. Ideal as a home-based opportunity with travel to local beaches.
