BN partners global brand - part 1

BN partners global brand - part 1

I'm proud of this one. Our subject matter means that it's not difficult for us to get attention paid to our activities and for us to be asked to comment on aspects of society and the stories of the day, and I deal with an average three or four approaches every week across the year. Our subject matter can also make people, authorities and big business nervous which hampers our progress somewhat with many obvious avenues to promotion closed to us.
It was particularly pleasing, therefore to be asked by marketing and production company Mob Kitchen to help them make four films for You Tube for their client Stella Artois. We've all praised the Stella adverts on TV and in the press for their unfiltered lager and their willingness to be associated with naked people and were delighted that they wanted to continue the theme. 
We pitched in and found for them the majority of the people who would be involved and three out of the four locations - so much so that we get a mention in the films' descriptions on You Tube (I'm pressing for it to be hyperlinked...). The first film is out with three more to come. Stella will be promoting it on social media and so please help by sharing the heck out of it on your accounts!

Stay Wild and Swim Naked - this Friday!

Stay Wild and Swim Naked - this Friday!

One of the main aims of the Great British Skinny Dip is to encourage new people, groups and venues to experience the euphoria of clothes-free swimming and so it's wonderful to see a new swim hosted by a group of (usually) swimsuited people in Lancashire this Friday.
Group leader Elaine says:
'I’m very excited to be holding this event with our swim group, Lancashire’s stay wild wild swim, helping to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation, working alongside British Naturism, too. I lost my mum to heart disease and this is my first opportunity to raise vital funds and awareness, as well as, hopefully, bringing awareness of Naturism too and helping people to become more comfortable in their own skin.’
We're delighted to be working with you Elaine and want to encourage as many people as possible to come along.

Self-catering forest villa for Naturist retreats in Aveiro area, Portugal

Self-catering forest villa for Naturist retreats in Aveiro area, Portugal

the nest is a unique place for a forest retreat in a remote and secluded location. Here you can enjoy isolation, privacy and quietude whilst being surrounded by nature, sleep to the sound of waterfalls and a stream, and wake up to crickets and birds. During the warmer months it is great out under the sun or the soothing shadow of close to 70 species of trees. In the colder months you’ll enjoy being inside looking at the alluring landscape that keeps changing throughout the year (and even then there will be some hours of warm sunshine most of the days).
The accommodation area is around 1,722 square feet, while the whole property is around two acres. The villa features two bedrooms — one with a King-size bed and the other with a double bed — a bathroom with bathtub, a toilet, a cosy space for relaxing, dining and living room, and two balconies.
The house was built in 2002, and has two floors: the upper floor is entirely at the disposal of one single group of guests at a time, while the lower floor has been reserved for the hosts. All rooms have large windows or French windows facing outdoors, including kitchen and bathrooms. Outside you will find sun loungers, hammocks, chairs, stools, tables and sun umbrellas. The kitchen is fitted with all the necessary appliances.
The neighbouring zone is forest area with no houses around, typically very quiet. Around the property there are no shops or services, but at Sever do Vouga village (3 miles away) you will find all kinds of useful services, as well as a number of tourist attractions. The property is 50 miles (1 hour) by car away from Oporto’s airport.
The villa was designed and is owned by a Portuguese couple, and started welcoming guests on last May. The villa is run by Armando, on a pause from his activity as college professor. Armando has worked in England, is very fluent in English, is familiar to UK culture and loves welcoming fellow naturists.
Average ratings by guests are 5/5 on Airbnb, and 10/10 on Booking.com. the nest holds these distinctions from Booking.com: 4/5 property rating, 2/3 Travel Sustainable, and is also Proud Certified.
Discount for BN members!
British Naturism members benefit from prices around 15% cheaper through direct booking

The Gathering - Change your spots with the reaper this Halloween!

The Gathering - Change your spots with the reaper this Halloween!

This Halloween, don't be grim, reap the benefits of a naturist break at SANER's Halloween Gathering - BN members from all regions welcome.  Enjoy the devilishly good Naturist entertainment and events. Our final itinerary is yet to be finalised, however, what's for certain is that you'll be enjoying a monster mash-up of a Halloween disco.  At some point, maybe venture out (with clothes, sadly) to discover the local history of Stirling and its famous castle.
Since the event was launched in May, booking has been brisk and now all single rooms have now been taken, but we've set up a topic on the forum to help single people to connect and book twin rooms to share.

Please remember to ONLY book via the BN shop - the hotel is not taking bookings direct for this BN event.

Don't forget - as the hotel is next to the site of the Battle of Bannockburn, watch out for ghostly apparitions throughout your Halloween break at the Gathering!

Jupiter Artland - a hidden gem

Jupiter Artland - a hidden gem

Despite the unsettled forecast for our 3rd annual trip to Jupiter Artland on the outskirts of Edinburgh, last Saturday 36 of us spent a lovely two hours in the warm sun touring the gardens and the various sculptures and artworks. For most of us, it was our first time here, writes Billy Ritchie.
Jupiter Artland is set in the grounds of a private house and enjoys various permanent sculptures and numerous artworks that are commissioned by artists annually. Partly set in woodland it is complemented with large open areas sporting small green hills with paths that spiral up and down them nestled by water features. It is truly a hidden gem 
I think the comment we received from one of our first-time visitors sums it up: 'It was almost mystical walking about and stumbling upon random art works around each corner. Having never been before it did feel like a journey of discovery.'
Our picture shows some of the guests and the sculpture I Lay Here For You by Tracy Emin.

Young British Naturism - A Fresh Start

Young British Naturism - A Fresh Start

The future of British Naturism is dependent on members who are part of Young British Naturism today. That is my strongly held belief, and why I decided to stand as the YBN Lead. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Thomas McPolin for his hard work in shaping YBN over the last few years. As has already been expressed by the Executive Committee and fellow members in recent months, he
was instrumental in implementing changes, such as increasing the age group to 18-35, which have helped to ensure YBN has a stable future.
I have been a member of BN for the last four years, and during that time I have been active at events and, for the last year and a half, held other volunteer roles such as supporting events as an Official Photographer and First Aider. For the last year I have been working behind the scenes to help engage new YBN members, helping to demonstrate how to become involved, and trying to work towards breaking through those ‘first time’ nerves for our newer members. If you are a YBN member, and received a welcome message when joining – that was me!
I have been delighted to be given the opportunity to support YBN as the Lead, and to fill the place on the Executive Committee to advocate for younger members. I would like to express my gratitude to the EC for appointing me to this post.
I’m sure you’re wondering how YBN will evolve in the coming 12 months. Along with Jamie Mogford, newly appointed YBN Deputy Lead, I am placing a renewed emphasis on wider engagement with BN and in-person social activities. I am in the process of liaising with landed clubs across the country to start ‘YBN @...’ days, ensuring that members in all regions have the opportunity to meet with like-minded Naturists and are not limited by regional constraints. One of the concerns I have heard from members is that without the ability to have free access to transport, getting to the larger national events has been challenging. I am hoping that by using the large network of landed clubs across the country, we will be able to ensure that all members can be engaged with YBN and feel welcomed into our fantastic community. This also helps to introduce members to local clubs, a development which has been very much welcomed by the committee members I have spoken with so far. If you are part of a club, and would be interested in hosting YBN weekends, I would very much like to hear from you!
We are also in the process of developing a ‘winter plan’, which will ensure that new members joining in the quieter months are able to meet members of the YBN community and do not drift off into the Naturist wilderness. This is definitely an area which has needed a little work, and I am looking forward to ensuring this is developed further year on year.
Additionally, we are organising trips to enjoy the sights and scenes a little further away. Jamie has been hard at work planning a trip to Cologne in Germany for February 2024 to enjoy the Naturist-friendly spas a little further afield. We are hoping for trips like this to become an annual fixture on the YBN calendar. It has also been fantastic to see YBN members organising trips to Euronat in late 2024 – providing more opportunities for engagement than ever before!
Finally, I would like to invite anyone with ideas for how to develop the YBN offering to reach out to either myself or Jamie. We would love
to hear from you! Likewise, if you would like to volunteer to be part of the YBN Leadership
Team please let us know so we can discuss opportunities further.

More news from the GBSD desk – and several new swims with a difference!

More news from the GBSD desk – and several new swims with a difference!

With luck, by the time these newly added Great British Skinny Dips take place, the jet stream will have decided it’s had enough of soaking and freezing us and will have graciously allowed summer to return. One of the new adds is a return to Petersfield Lido – and isn’t it fantastic when venues enjoy us nudies so much they happily schedule more events? The other two GBSDs are particularly exciting (to me, anyway) – one, because it’s hosted by a wild swimming group, and the other, because it's in the wilds of northern Scotland. Wild!
 
August 18
Stay wild and swim naked, Blackburn, Lancashire
Says organiser Elaine Nuttall:  ‘I’m very excited to be holding this event with our swim group, Lancashire’s stay wild wild swim, helping to raise funds for the British Heart foundation, working alongside British Naturism, too. I lost my mum to heart disease and this is my first opportunity to raise vital funds and awareness, as well as, hopefully, bringing awareness of Naturism too and helping people to become more comfortable in their own skin.’
August 27
Petersfield Lido, Petersfield, Hampshire
September 16
Findhorn Beach, (pictured) Findhorn Forres, Moray, Scotland
The most northerly GBSD in the UK, according to organiser Alan Ellison. Keep an eye out for seals and dolphins!
 
And there are plenty more GBSDs for you to enjoy in August and September. Despite the rotten weather, BN events this summer, whether dips or Naked Heart Walks or other activities,  have been well-attended and are raising lots of much-needed dosh for our charity partner the British Heart Foundation. Let’s keep it going!
 

Farne Island boat trip - amazing weather!

Farne Island boat trip - amazing weather!

28 naked guests enjoyed amazing weather for the return trip to the Farne Islands. Departure at 15.30 came with reports of unsettled sea and a suggestion from our skipper that we forgo the Islands and instead head up the coast. 
On the return journey arctic terns and puffins flew by the boat. There were few boats out sailing, and kayaks, those that we did see gave us a cheery wave as we cheekily past them!
What incredible events there are available to us! Let's make the most of them...

Naked Heart Walk - RSPB Rainham Marshes - a report

Naked Heart Walk - RSPB Rainham Marshes - a report

RSPB Rainham Marshes, near Purfleet in Essex is a jewel amongst an unusual setting, writes Colin Taylor.
Our Naked Heart Walk for British Heart Foundation in late July was a great success! The reserve is a former MOD firing range which has now been taken over by the RSPB. On the southern perimeter is the Thames and walkers viewed a huge cruise ship pass by, heading to the sea, as they walked round the flat marshland amongst the pools and viewing hides.
To the north we saw the High Speed trains whistle by on their way to St Pancras or to the Kent coast, so fast that if the passengers had looked out they would have had just a fleeting view of some naked walkers. Blink and look again to verify this unusual sight and they would be a mile down the track, out of sight. Behind that line are heavy industrial units and to the west we saw the sun setting over London. The two-storey building that houses the shop and café has magnificent viewing windows where we could see the Thames and the whole of the reserve.
39 walkers left from the café and descended via a metal walkway onto the almost circular route around the reserve. Because of dangerous footpaths under repair we had to retrace our steps from the fist viewing hide to complete the walk, initially parallel to the Thames walkway and then deeper into the reserve and then turn back and retrace steps to the cafe. The weather, contrary to predicted rain in the forecast was splendid and the sun shone throughout the walk. We were joined by three volunteers from the British Heart Foundation who acted as marshals for our group and delivered BHF pins and wristbands to all participants.

Join ESN at Scotney Castle!

Naked Heart Walk - Bishampton - a report

Naked Heart Walk - Bishampton - a report

Whilst viewing the North West region’s collection of Naked Heart Walks and Great British Skinny Dip events in advance, I had visions of this event being the most difficult to sell and to accomplish any kind of real success. Perhaps this was fuelled by some suggestions of the venue not being suitable for a walk, or may be the slow response regarding early ticket sales.
I needn't have worried! Because it was a 'double' event (Charity Walk and Skinny Dip) it gave us a springboard for reaching out to two separate sources of interest, making it even more appealing. The open water swimming in the large lake was far more popular than anticipated, thus attracting Naturists with alternative interests from walking.
As for the walk being shorter - well it didn’t really deter anyone at all and I came to realise that the Naturists in areas that are not really well served with events were really grateful for us taking the show on the road. They were completely happy to mingle and socialise with other attendees,  engaging in conversation whilst clothes-free enjoying the Worcestershire summer sunshine.
We even attracted a few new Naturists, who were nervous at the start, but perfectly comfortable once they realised how quickly they began to enjoy being clothes free - not one of the 60 guests remained clothed throughout the day. My wife spoke to two of the newbies at length - Kelly from Merseyside and Carisa from Birmingham and they were even happy to be photographed Naturally. I am 100% sure we will return to this superb venue with its fabulous facilities in 2024.

A week with North Wales Naturist Society at Lammas Event Camp

A week with North Wales Naturist Society at Lammas Event Camp

2023 has been a remarkable year for North Wales Naturist Society (NWNS), who have established and run four events since April on the beautiful, natural woodland estate at Halkyn Castle Woods, Flintshire, North Wales.
Running from July 31st – August 5th Lammas Event Camp is open to everyone who is serious about Naturism. Guests have been visiting NWNS from not just north Wales, but all across the north west of the country, and as a result, a wonderful community has started to thrive, which is warm and welcoming to all.

The 47-acre site has a lot to offer Naturists, from beautiful woodland walks, a woodland fire circle, complete with open campfire in a seated covered area, a large camp ground with electric, and non-electric hook ups, toilet and shower block, and a quiet meadow to relax in. Whether you want to relax and find a peaceful place, or simply want to mingle with other Naturists, Halkyn Castle Woods is the perfect setting.

The camp will be six days of fun filled activities including walks, craft workshops, mindfulness and wellbeing sessions, archery, games and challenges, the building of a natural woodland sculpture and more.

There is plenty of evening entertainment and dancing as well as a trip off site to an ancient cemetery, dating back over 200 years, with a real pirate’s grave, and an end of event beach day.

For more information and booking visit the club website at www.nwns.fun

The Forum Live - interviewing Nick Mayhew-Smith, BN Clubs Officer

The Forum Live - interviewing Nick Mayhew-Smith, BN Clubs Officer

Next Monday, 24 July, in the last Forum Live before the summer break, I'll have the pleasure of talking to Nick Mayhew-Smith, recently appointed as British Naturism's Clubs Officer.
Nick has a long history in Naturism and BN and, as the author of many books about Naturist places has been a guest on the Forum Live before. On Monday, we'll learn more about the role of Clubs Officer and what Nick hopes to achieve - and how. It can't be a one-man job and so we'll also find out how we all can help - and strengthen Naturism in the UK.
Join the session on the night over in the BN shop
