Need to buy your union’s supply of condoms for the year?
13/09/2006

The welfare campaign is here to help you all with your campaigning, and we receive many enquiries from welfare officers looking to source condoms for their sexual health campaigns. NUS Services have secured an agreement with Mates Healthcare to ensure that officers can purchase condoms at the cheapest possible price.

Some unions manage to secure free condoms from their local Primary Care Trust (PCT) and sexual health services, but our research has shown this varies drastically according to town or city. We would recommend that you approach your PCT and see if they are able to provide you with any free resources, and NUS is currently working with the department of Health to igve guidelines to PCTs around working with local students unions. In the mean time however, for those unions who are left with no alternative but to purchase the condoms they distribute, we hope that by purchasing your condoms through this deal you will save on valuable resources.

Attached is an order form, with pricing information about the different condoms available. Please note that they are to be ordered directly from Mates, using the phone number or return address on the form.

I hope this is of help to you all. Good luck with your sexual health campaigning over the forthcoming year and if I can be of any assistance don’t hesitate to contact me- veronica.king@nus.org.uk
