Walkers to strip naked for ramble in castle grounds

Thousands of people will strip off their clothes and stroll around the grounds of gardens, stately homes and castles to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation (BHF). The fundraisers are to take part in British Naturism’s Naked Heart Walks, which will be clothing-optional.

Andrew Welch, national spokesperson for British Naturism, said: “Taboos around nudity are eroding and the health and well-being benefits of going naked are more widely understood, with more and more people wanting to get the exhilarating feelings for themselves. We encourage anyone to come and give it a go – and raise much-needed funds for our charity partner, the British Heart Foundation.”




Ben Bishop, BHF fundraising manager, said: “There are lots of ways to support the BHF and, thanks to British Naturism, these now include taking your clothes off and enjoying the great outdoors. We hope that thousands of people will join one of the many walks being held around the country. In doing so, they’ll be helping us fund scientists to discover the new treatments and cures that can save and improve lives.”

There are currently six Naked Heart Walks, and tickets are on sale now:

  • Powderham Castle – Devon – Saturday 18 May
