Hot, innit... This extreme heat in the UK sounds great but if you do go outside nude in the sun, please, SPF50 all over and stay hydrated. The best way to stay cool though is to stay nude inside, with the curtains shut. And if you don't sleep nude tonight, then you'll just be torturing yourself!

Yesterday evening @helen.berrimansbareall.uk and I had our naturist housewarming, while @sarahmexicochrist.bsky.social is still staying with us. @britnaturism.bsky.social

Back home after my travels, and I appear to have brought a stray American home with me... 😁 @simon.berrimansbareall.uk and I are pleased to welcome @sarahmexicochrist.bsky.social to our home for a few nights. Its a shame the weather isn't a little more Floridian though.

When you have house-guests it really helps when they are naturist too! @sarahmexicochrist.bsky.social is staying with @helen.berrimansbareall.uk and me for a few days, and I really appreciate not having to think about putting something on just to walk around my own home.

Hula hoop artist, mindset coach, and canal boater Amy has only just discovered naturism, but has immediately felt at home. Joyfulness and kindness are at the heart of everything she does. Women in Focus ep. 31 is out Sat 6nd June. Listen wherever you get your podcasts. 🔊 podfollow.com/womeninfocus

Have you ever tried taking a panoramic photo of yourself?.. Yeah, there's a reason why people tend not to take selfies this way! 😂

Just heard that the venerable naturist magazine Health & Efficiency (now H&E Naturist) is to cease print publication from today. It was the first place I worked, as an editorial assistant in 1990, and loved the naturist vibe. Hated the dodgy classified ads, but apparently they are now being axed.

Making the most of country living and yes... Sometimes we wear clothes. Fresh air, fresh flowers, fresh eggs and beautiful views on our doorstep #countrylife

Be careful sunbathing out there...

The Naked Heart Walk at Powderham Castle, in Devon today. With @helen.berrimansbareall.uk, @naturistneil.bsky.social, and @nakedtravels1.bsky.social. With @britnaturism.bsky.social

The Naked Heart Walk at Powderham Castle wasn't the best weather but for seasoned naturists it was plenty warm enough. It was a lovely stroll through the park up to the folly and back to the castle. If you're a BN member check out the official photos in the members gallery @simon.berrimansbareall.uk

Next Saturday is the Naked Heart Walk at Powderham Castle in Devon. @simon.berrimansbareall.uk and I have not been to this one yet, so we're looking forward to going - just hoping for nice weather. Anyone else joining us? Get your ticket on EventBrite: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/powderham-...

So, its World Naked Gardening Day. However as @simon.berrimansbareall.uk and I have just moved house, we've booked a gardener to come and sort this lot out. We don't know where we'd start! Next year I'll be out here with my secateurs. Maybe... #WNGD #WNGD26

Episode 29: Helen talks to Sarah Mexico Christenson, Florida nudist and social media creator, about leaving corporate life to normalise nudity online, overcoming the body shame inflicted by purity culture, and why a naked cruise beats any other kind. British Naturism #podcast

The best thing I ever gave myself was permission to stop hiding. What will you give yourself today? #IWD2026 #GiveToGain

Here's a weird one! I bet few outside the UK have heard this. The BBC does not have adverts, so on the news channel they often have a gap to fill at the top of the hour. David Lowe is the composer of the BBC News Countdown, a 90 second little gem! And its on Spotify: open.spotify.com/track/7t933Q...

The Naked Truth, a British Naturism initiative, have released a very well done short documentary. It follows Saoirse as she goes to NKD, one of the many British naturist festivals held each year, for the first time. 📺 vimeo.com/1165579556 with @britnaturism.bsky.social

Last day is paradise! Great Stirrup Cay for the second time on our way back to Miami, arriving tomorrow morning. We need to be out of our rooms by 7.30am - that's just rude! Oh, but I did finally meet up with the lovely Sarah Mexico Christenson. cruisebare.com @britnaturism.bsky.social #bnb26

What a great meet-up today! Celebrating women in naturism across the globe. with @angy1de.bsky.social @francellirenteria.bsky.social @vianaziz.bsky.social @britnaturism.bsky.social #BNB26

What a fab first day. ☀️ Great Stirrup Cay in the Bahamas turned naturist for the day! Met up with Erin Gilgur of Lake Como, who you may remember from Ep.24 of Women in Focus. In case you're wondering I'm travelling with Colin, @britnaturism.bsky.social Chairman! lakecomonaturally.com cruisebare.com

I've looked at naturism and Christianity before, but found myself wondering if Islam is as clear cut on our way of life as everyone presumes. Apparently not... Thanks to @vianaziz.bsky.social for reviewing this. Page 40 in this month's @henaturist.bsky.social. pocketmags.com/he-naturist-...

Merry Christmas one and all! We've had a fab day. Siobhan and Pete popped in for a drink this morning, so we had to get a Christmas photo. (Yes, Helen's earrings light up!) with @helen.berrimansbareall.uk

Last year I collaborated with a bunch of folk on Twitter to produce a naturist rendition on Jingle Bells! Its unlikely its going to top any charts, but it was a bit of festive fun. Maybe next year we can try a Bluesky version. vimeo.com/783753180

Merry Christmas everyone, from the Berrimans! 🎄 x

I'm not a big fan of karaoke, but give me a bit of SingStar on the PS3 and I'm there! Lovely pre-Christmas evening with Pete and Siobhan. 🎤🤶

Not your usual Saturday afternoon. Went to the clothing optional performance of "Boys in the Buff" (optional for the audience, that is!) with @helen.berrimansbareall.uk at the Golden Goose theatre in Camberwell. A fun body positive play.

Christmas has finally come to the Berriman household. We bought the tree today and put up the decorations. I spent hours untangling the tree lights... @helen.berrimansbareall.uk did her sideboard display too. We haven't found the Santa hats yet though...

My wife @helen.berrimansbareall.uk runs the Women in Naturism campaign, helping people overcome body shame through acceptance. Australia's social media age-ban would legally block her from reaching teens who need that message most. This isn't about naturism, it's about evidence-based protection.

I spoke to Alex Light and Em Clarkson for the 'Should I Delete That?' #podcast at their studio a couple of weeks ago. They were genuinely interested in what naturism is. The more we chat about this kind of stuff, the more myths are busted. 🔊 podfollow.com/should-i-del... @britnaturism.bsky.social

A good article. A couple of corrections as it is only an offence being naked if the person intends to cause harassment, alarm or distress. The law protects Naturists.

Its nearly the end of the season, but we have one last opportunity to enjoy @britnaturism.bsky.social Sunfolk at the EC meeting weekend. Getting in the hot tub in the cold, crisp autumn morning air certainly wakes you up!

Today's @britnaturism.bsky.social Naked Heart Walk at Leonardslee Lake and Gardens was rather wet, but it didn't dampen spirits. It wasn't cold and skin dries easily! And @helen.berrimansbareall.uk kept an eye on the café... The Naked Heart Walks are to raise funds for @thebhf.bsky.social.

I always underestimate how long it takes to set up all the machines at NRG Live! Nevertheless it was a very enjoyable and successful day at @naturistfoundation.org on Saturday. Its always great to see peoples excitement when they spot a game they haven't seen in decades! Roll on the next one. 😁

Episode 22: Helen and her adult stepdaughter Lizzie talk about family naturism, growing up with body confidence, and breaking social norms - with laughs, media stories, and a fresh, unfiltered take on being yourself, clothes or no clothes. British Naturism #podcast

Here's a piece which I have written to coincide with my daughter being on the Women In Focus podcast, and which the INF have kindly hosted. Her episode is out tomorrow, Sat. 6th Sept. Our society is 'protecting children into the very problems we seek to prevent.' Its time for an honest conversation.
