Scheduled dates
This week-long exhibition brings the community together sharing stories on a subject that affects 1 in 3 women, but no-one ever talks about: pelvic floor problems like incontinence, prolapse and pelvic pain. Inspired by the stigma smashing podcast Why Mums Don’t Jump, students at Falmouth University created a landmark animated film that depicts - for the first time - the experience of pelvic organ prolapse after childbirth.
To celebrate this ground-breaking work the exhibition will showcase the behind the scenes and invites visitors to join in and move these private experiences of despair to shared public joy!
On 16 November, come along for activities:
- 11:00-12:30 - Meet and greet, and short talk about the event
- 13:30-15:00 - Workshop - decorate your own vagina cake and discuss all things pelvic health over a cuppa!
Book for the 16 November activities using the link above.
The exhibition will be open 13-16 November, 10:00-17:00, and booking is not required.
