    All year naturist swims

    By Guest, in Eastern,

    Did you know that there are eight naturist swims in Eastern Region alone; and if you live near another Region then there are more there too that might be within easy travelling distance. Eastern Region has swims in or near:
    Didcot : Colchester x 2 : Bury St.Edmunds : Northampton : Watford : Norwich : Leicester
    The way to find them is via the BN website then filter down: Places to Go > UK > ER (Eatern Region) > Swims.
    What happens at a naturst swim? The monthly Mid-Anglia Swimming Club is held at the public swimming pool in the town centre of Bury St.Edmunds. Only a few minutes off the A14, so very easy to access. There is a large bright swimming pool with swimming lanes, life guards, and piped music. Upstairs there is a Sauna and Steam Room. Some people are serious swimmers and others enjoy the social atmosphere. Booking is mandatory. You dont have to be a member of BN.

    Gary caught up with Howard recently and he said “we were blessed with unexpectedly sunny weather for the Beach Day at Studland on 16th June, especially given how cool and wet it had been up until then. The National Trust provided equipment for a leisurely hour or so of litter-picking, which somewhat depressingly resulted in three large sacks full of rubbish, so we did some good as well as meeting and chatting. The sea was not as cold as expected. Next Beach Day is Sunday, 25th August”.

    Yet another unique opportunity has now come up in the LASER region. It’s a naturist trek with llamas. Whether or not the llamas are joining in with the undress code will depend on the farmer I suspect.  We will be taking it in turns to lead 8 llamas through private woods at Bluecaps llama farm near Coulsley Wood near Wadhurst. This is in the beautiful High Weald area of East Sussex. There’s only twenty tickets available so book early. At the end of the walk there will be a picnic. The event takes place between 3 and 6pm. Tickets are £26 for BN members and £31 for non members. This is a clothes optional event. See the link here:  LLAMA WALK LINK
    Fun facts about llamas:
    1 Baby llamas are called crias.
    2 Mother llamas bond with their baby by humming.
    3 Yes they spit but only when really upset. If their ears go back watch out!!
    4 Llamas have a split upper lip to enable them to select the tastiest nibbles.
    5 Llamas have a designated bathroom area!!!
    6 Llamas are from the Andes region of South America.
    7 Llamas are very sociable animals.
    8 They are strong and can carry 90kg all day... but if you overpack them they refuse to move.

    The purpose of my two (so far) annual clothes-optional charity walks along part of the Cuckoo Trail in East Sussex (a former railway line  used frequently by walkers, cyclists and even horse riders) was to try  to demonstrate that naturists are normal citizens who simply prefer to spend their down-time without clothes (perfectly legal as we all know) but who, like any other grouping of like-minded people, might wish to raise money for a charity by a sponsored walk (again a common-enough event).

    To attract more women, I chose a charity, Breast Cancer Now, which is concerned with a disease, though by no means unknown in the male population, is much more prevalent among women. This year at least we had one brave lady, Dee, who arrived with her husband for the walk, and stripped off readily from the start and remained naked throughout in spite of the indifferent weather. But where were the other ladies ?  It would have been great to have had more women as a more equal mix of the sexes leads to better public perception. Hopefully Dee will report to other women of her acquaintance that the experience was a positive one and that, in 2023, people met us in a friendly, cheerful and accepting way even donating cash to the cause there and then.
    Of course being very much in the public eye we were often meeting passers-by but the overwhelming attitude was of almost joining in with the spirit of the occasion.  The route this time was shorter but the four and a half miles from Horam to the Cuckoo Trail car park at Hellingly seemed just right for those who participated. And if it wasn't far enough, then they  walked back as indeed several did. The remainder dressing and returning to the start by bus. Altogether we raised in excess of £400 for Breast Cancer Now.
     I know that June represents the start of the all too short summer season when naturist events crowd alarmingly together but would love
     to see more walkers (and I know of plenty from all my walk leaderships) including particularly more representatives of our female
    membership,  in 2025.
