C-Card scheme
When you get to a registration point, you will be seen by a trained C-Card worker on a one-to-one basis in a private space. They will ask you some questions to make sure the situation you are in is safe. At the registration you will be given the opportunity to see how to put a condom on.
You wont be asked for your name or address to register for your C-Card. The information you will asked for is your date of birth and your postcode - this information is confidential and wont be traced.
Once registered, you will be given a purple card with your own personal number on it - this is your C-Card to keep and use to collect condoms. Your C-Card entitles you to 10 visits then on your 10th visit you will need to re-register for a new card. At the registration you will be given a wallet with an app on, when you scan the app this will give you a list of collection points within the borough.
(The wallets will be available from June 2011) You will also be offered information leaflets, and signposted to show you were you can use your C-Card.

The C-Card worker will show you all the condoms in the C-Card range and help you make a choice of condoms and lube.
How do I use the c-card at an outlet?
You will need to tick on the C-Card which type of condom you want and hand this to a member of staff at any outlet displaying the window stickers detailed above. You do not need to give your name or any other personal details to the person at the outlet.
Your C-Card will be given back to you with the date of the visit marked on it. The service is confidential and the person at the outlet will not discuss your visit with anybody else.
When do I need a new card?
When you have used your card 10 times and it is full you will need to go back to a registration point to get a new one. You will also need to get a new card if yours is lost or stolen as cards cannot be re-issued.
Does my card expire?
No, C-Cards do not expire. How often you use your card and the condoms you get on the scheme is up to you. If you havnt used your card for over 3 months and you are under the age of 16, you will be asked to re-register. This is to ensure we are keeping you safe and there have been no changes in relationships and lifestyle since your initial registration.
