Shakira 'Scotty Unfamous' Scott; London based sexfluencer, sex educator and multi award-winning erotic romance author on a mission to help people with vulvas live their best heaux life.

She started working in the sexual wellness industry in 2017 when I realised the lack of people talking about sex in this field who looked like me. She knew how important it was to create an unapologetic space for our community and anyone else who wanted to learn about and explore sex, but to also make it fun.

For over 6 years, Scotty has been providing people with tools to assist them in exploring and removing the stigma around their sexuality, educate them in the art of sensuality and promote and inspire self-love and body confidence through my books, online content and workshops.

Having featured on platforms such as Channel 4, Channel 5, BBC Woman’s Hour, Marie Claire, The Sunday Times and Vogue , to name a few, as well as also teaching sex education to college and university students.

Jennie Williams is the founder and CEO of Enhance the UK (ETUK), a user-led charity which helps people with physical and sensory disabilities to live a full life. She set it up after working in the care sector and becoming frustrated with the lack of practical information and support available for people who wanted to know more about communicating with disabled people both professionally and personally.

Jennie, who has degenerative hearing loss also wanted to encourage open conversation and education around sex and disability. The charity’s Undressing Disability campaign focuses on the sexual rights and responsibilities of disabled people. It includes the ‘Love Lounge’, podcasts, videos and books alongside an online forum for advice and answers regarding sex, dating and relationships for those with impairments.

Adam from I Kissed a Boy on BBC Three. 

Fresh from his appearance on the hit BBC reality series I Kissed a Boy, Jack S is making waves both on-screen and on-stage. Known for his infectious energy, magnetic personality, and unapologetic authenticity, Jack quickly became a fan favourite on the show — not just for his charm, but for his confidence and openness in the LGBTQ+ spotlight.

Beyond reality TV, Jack is also a talented performer, bringing charisma and passion to every stage he steps onto. Whether he’s entertaining crowds at queer nightlife events or representing the community at pride celebrations, Jack continues to use his platform to promote self-love, inclusivity, and joy.

Adam is a UAL graduate and more recently was diagnosed with HIV, he opens up candidly about his struggles dating since his diagnosis but speaks positively about how this does not let the diagnosis define him. We are delighted to have him on our panel discussion this September as he opens up about dating in the media and much more.
