C-Card Condom distribution scheme for young people

The East Sussex C-Card scheme is a free and confidential co-ordinated condom distribution network for young people aged 13 to 24 years in East Sussex. It aims to provide quick and confidential access to condoms, supported by evidence based, accurate contraceptive and sexual health information, and sign posting to comprehensive contraceptive and sexual health services.

The scheme has been established in East Sussex for a number of years and currently includes providers from the following organisations/sectors: East Sussex County Council, local NHS organisations, pharmacies, GP surgeries, local colleges and schools, youth groups and other community and voluntary sector organisations.

Community Pharmacies and GP surgeries can sign up to provide the C-Card condom distribution scheme for young people by signing up to the Public Health Local Service Agreement (PHLSA) via East Sussex.gov.

All other services that are interested in providing the C-Card scheme, requests for training, resources and stock order forms should be made via email the C-Card mail box.
