The V word

  • Poppy Collier

I created, branded and now run the V word - a workshop that gets people talking about vulvas using cupcakes and icing. During the events, each person decorates their own vulva cupcake and learns a thing or two as they go along. The workshops are very light-hearted, but I created them for an important reason. Lots of women are self-conscious about their vulvas, and 1 in 4 women in the UK skip their cervical screenings because they’re afraid their vagina isn’t normal, which causes hundreds of deaths a year. The workshops open up the conversation and share facts to encourage vulva positivity and minimise shame.
