C-CARD Scheme

What the Cardiff C-Card Scheme is about?

The Scheme is NOT just about giving out condoms, but allowing young people the opportunity to explore sexual health issues, raise and ask questions in a confidential environment and gain information about sexual health services. Young people, particularly those under 16, are always encouraged to speak to a parent or responsible adult.

Young people are able to get a C-Card by visiting one of our C-Card Points across Cardiff or the Vale of Glamorgan. A trained professional will then ensure that young people have the skills and information necessary to make informed decisions regarding their sexual health before issuing a C-Card.

Are people trained to deliver C-Card?
All assessors involved in the Cardiff C-Card Scheme are trained and continually supported to provide the best service possible. Youth groups and projects can provide young people with the ideal setting within their communities to seek advice and support on sexual health matters and access to condoms
