Condoms are FREE if you have a C Card!

SAFE Home - Information and advice for people living in BANES

If you are under the age of 20 (and in some cases under 25) you can get free condoms from various places in Bath and North East Somerset by using a C Card.

What is a C Card?

A C Card is simply a plastic key fob that you can attach to your keys if you have had a discussion with your School Nurse, Youth Worker or a range of other trained professionals about the use of condoms. This C Card key fob can be exchanged for FREE condoms.

Sometimes it might seem too hard or too scary to see a school nurse, youth worker or other professional to get your C Card. If this is the case you can complete the C Card Online Assessment. If you answer all the questions correctly, you will be awarded a certificate which you then need to print off in order to exchange it at a number of venues for a C Card key fob and free condoms.

For more information on the online assessment, simply click the C Card Online Assessment option on the navigation panel.

Remember ... you should never feel pressured into having sex. It should be a decision that both you and your partner make together. It is illegal to have sex if you are under 16. Health professionals can provide confidential sexual health information, advice and contraception to you whatever your age if have decided to have sex.

Fact: You often hear horrendous stories about 'umbrella' treatment for sexually transmitted infections. That's just what these are, stories. There not true! No one is going to scrape down your willie with an umbrella instrument to test for STIs. If you do need an internal swab, it'll be taken using an ultra slim instrument which looks more like a thin coffee stirrer. It is a quick and simple test, and certainly not worth risking your health to avoid.
