About C-Card
C-Card is a free condom issuing scheme for anyone aged 13 to 24, no matter whether you’re having sex or thinking about having sex.
A C-Card is a card similar to a membership card that allows you to get free condoms and lube from participating venues such as youth clubs, sexual health clinics and schools. Some sites can also provide chlamydia tests and pregnancy tests if needed.
C-Cards are completely free of charge and are designed to fit well in your purse or wallet.

How to get a C-Card
The C-Card is available to young people under 25 in Devon and Torbay. You can get a C-Card from a range of venues such as youth clubs or sexual health clinics.
Depending on the venue, you may need to arrange an appointment to get registered to the scheme.
If you are secondary school student, a college student or a university student, please contact your school nurse for more information on the C-Card scheme. They can be contacted by text on 07520 631722 or through their public health nursing hubs. Please click here for more details.
To find your nearest C-Card site to register please click here. You will need to select C-Card Registration from the drop-down list.
When registering, a trained worker will have a confidential chat with you. If you’re under 16 they will need to ask you a few more questions to make sure you’re safe and that they’re giving you the right advice and information. You will then receive your new C-Card and a ‘starter pack’ selection of free condoms and lube.
Remember:
- Even when using condoms you should consider regular screening for sexually transmitted infections every time you start a new relationship or every 12 months if you’re in a relationship.
- If there is ever any type of condom failure or you’re worried that something went wrong during sex, you should seek advice about emergency contraception.
If you are having problems getting condoms please phone the C-Card team on 01392 284965.
