Good Vibes
Award: Future Impact Pencil
Future Impact Pencil / Future Impact / Design / 2022
Every day in the UK, two women die of cervical cancer. Regular screening reduces the risk by 80%, but appointments are unpleasant and millions are missed annually. This insight, along with the increasing acceptance of sex toys, led to the idea for Good Vibes. A revolutionary way to perform a smear test at home, it's a cell collecting sheath that sits over a vibrator, using bristles that replicate those used in a clinical screening. With the sheath over the top, the vibrator can be used as normal before sending the sample off for analysis, removing barriers and putting women's wellbeing in their own hands.
