The Josephine project, run by “Them Wifies” in Newcastle upon Tyne, provides a fun way to teach women with learning disabilities about their bodies. Josephine is a life-size anatomically correct cloth woman designed to bring a creative, fun and accessible approach to the health, sexual and relationship education using a range of approaches to ensure that the women are central to the thinking behind the project. The impact of Josephine’s awareness workshops has already started to show – the women now have access to useful medical information in a friendly environment where they can talk about their feelings, and share their fears and experiences.
