In this podcast, the winners of the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health Care’s David Bromham Memorial Award 2016 are in conversation with Janie Foote, Editorial Manager of the Journal of Family Planning and Reproductive Health Care about the ‘My Body Back (MBB) Project’.
The My Body Back (MBB) Clinic at St Bartholomew’s Hospital in London is a unique cervical screening clinic for women who have been sexually assaulted and was established in August 2015. The template for the clinic is one of time, space, listening, sharing control and an unspoken understanding of the particular difficulties faced by these women.
After accepting the award, the winners spoke to conference delegates about the MBB Clinic two years on from its inception, and talking to them afterwards over a cup of coffee they tell Janie Foote more about the clinic and how it operates.
The four women who shared the award for this project are: Dr Jill Zelin, Consultant GU Physician, Barts Health NHS Trust; Louise Cadman, Research Nurse Consultant at the Wolfson Institute of Preventive Medicine, Queen Mary University of London; Jane Vosper, Clinical Psychologist working in sexual health and HIV services at Barts Health NHS Trust; and Pavan Amara, Founder of the ‘My Body Back Project’.
