whilst I totally agree with BN's policy of not allowing people who are or have been on the sex offender register from being members i don't like they way they treat existing members who accept a caution for cat 3 indecent images, which can and do include naturist images, if the person accepts the caution which puts them on the register by default for two years, they are banned from being BN members indefinatly just like somebody who has actually harmed a person.
if they do not accept the caution and go to court it could seriously harm their privacy if it gets reported in local news.
so basically it's your membership or your privacy. I find that a vay disloyal way to treat members who have not hurt anybody, just been caught up in messed up confusing laws that drag naturism into indecent image laws.
Good morning - if you wish you could set up a locally based Group in the Groups section of ANW to attract attention of other ANW members in your area and chat about possibilities. One of you for example may know of a local swimming pool that could be hired for a couple of hours every month.
We would help promote the Group to encourage awareness but as it would be at first discussing opportunities in and around your local area there would be no commitments made at first other than online chatting. If you would like any help setting up a group do drop me a message.
As for already existing opportunities in your area, I will have a browse around in the Explore section and get back here with any I find, but in the meantime if anyone knows of any, do share them
Alan and Vicky Dorsetsaid:
Thank you Steve, will look at setting up a group soon.
Hi guys, we set up a group for those living in Somerset/Dorset/Devon :)
Here is a link to the group https://anaturistworld.com/group-community/somerset-dorset-devon P and L are just really getting it running but with luck we will have groups like this all over the world on ANW allowing members to safely meet up and share info.
