French opinion poll shows encouraging results - and parallels with British Naturism's 2022 poll.

BN's former International Director and now INF Vice-President Edwin Kilby, reports on a survey commissioned by the French Federation for Naturism (FFN), published just ahead of World Naturist Day on 1 June.

'The survey reveals that roughly 25% of French adults between the ages of 18 and 75 have experienced Naturism beyond the confines of their homes, with another 10% indicating a curiosity to try it. These figures translate to approximately 13 million people who have dabbled in Naturism and an additional 4 million who would consider participating.

Whilst we should beware of drawing too many conclusions from one survey, there is room for cautious optimism from its findings. It's also notable that there are striking similarities with those of the BN survey commissioned in 2022, particularly as regards the overall numbers of people participating in Naturism, and also the interest among younger people.'
