Get it On condom distribution
COVID-19
Get it On (GIO) is the condom distribution scheme running across Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton. Anyone under 25 can get free condoms from lots of different organisations when they have a GIO C-Card.
A Get it On venue has professionals that have been trained to work with young people about their sexual health and relationships and who can provide young people with their GIO C-Card.
Type of venues that have signed up to the scheme include:
• Voluntary organisations
• Youth services
• Pharmacies (Hampshire Pharmacies can issue c-cards. Southampton, Portsmouth and Isle of Wight Pharmacies cannot issue c-cards)
• GP Surgeries
Becoming a GIO venue
Community venues who wish to join the scheme must have at least one trained professional. The trained worker will need to attend the RSE 1&2 training (or equivalent) in order to participate.
Organisations in Hampshire can find out more about the training (including booking information) through the Hampshire Get It On. Training registration instructions for non-school venues can be read here. Virtual training will soon be available via the Hampshire Learning Zone.
(Pharmacies and GP surgeries do not need to attend the training)
