Our Values

Naturism

The ideas of equality, acceptance, freedom and a connection to nature are inherent in naturism and as such we recognise that it can be a transformative lifestyle for our mental and physical health.


Naturism is not a constant at the WE R One base, there are obviously practical limitations and nobody is forced to be naked here. The accommodation area is not naturist and is part of a wider camp site, but we do run and attend naturist events elsewhere and applicants do need to be comfortable with non sexual nudity - although there is no requirement to take part. Everyone is free to wear as many or as few clothes as they feel comfortable.


We do often link up with naturist communities and attend events where non sexual nudity is practiced, so an acceptance and maturity are required.

“I’d rather be naked in truth than dressed in pretense.”— Anonymous

Equality

We’re here to challenge the structures that divide, devalue, or disempower people, and to create practical alternatives rooted in dignity, fairness, and shared opportunity.

We actively try to shape a space where people of all backgrounds, identities, incomes, and experiences feel welcome, safe and heard. We aim to avoid tokenism and instead focus on redistributing access, resources, and decision-making wherever we can.

Our approach to economic and social equality draws on principles of Georgism, mutualism, and cooperative enterprise. That means we challenge rent-seeking, hoarding, and gatekeeping. Instead, we work to create structures where value flows outward rather then upward and where people are encouraged to build meaningful lives without dependence on systems that exploit or exclude them.

Freedom

At We R One, freedom means the ability to express who you are without fear, shame, or gatekeeping. Whether that’s through how you dress (or don’t), how you live, or how you work.

We champion the freedom to build, to create your own path outside of conventional employment or corporate hierarchy. That’s why we support micro-enterprise, cooperative ventures, and shared ownership models. Our mentorship programme is designed to help people turn ideas into action, and to do it on their own terms, without selling out their values or their autonomy.

Freedom also means freedom from judgement. As a naturist-friendly organisation, we recognise that bodies aren’t problems to be hidden and that personal authenticity is a form of resistance in a world that profits from shame and conformity.

We try not to prescribe how freedom should look. We’re here to protect your right to define it for yourself, as long as it doesn’t come at the expense of someone else’s.

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion”

Albert Camus

Connection

The interconnectedness of all nature is a vital tenet of the thinking at WE R One. Selfish, isolationist approaches do not and have never worked for humanity or the planet. We are part of nature and quite self-evidently we must ensure the environment that sustains us is safe.
Equally, we must collaborate to thrive, humans have succeeded through collaboration and the future cannot be decided by individuals.

“When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.”

John Muir
