A broken condom is as good as no condom at all. That means if you have an accident with your condom you need to go for a check up at a clinic.
Look out for...
Good quality condoms!
You can get condoms all over the place, from your local clinic to the pub toilet!
The question is whether you want to pay and whether the condom is any good.
Condoms must have or the BSI Kitemark, or the European CE mark or they are only fit for novelty purposes!
You generally find the condoms that do not have these stamps of approval are those with flashing lights and funny noises!

Male Condom
Protect Yourself
A male condom is made of very thin latex (rubber) or polyurethane and fits over the man's erect penis. Condoms are lubricated to make them easier to use.
The condom physically blocks sperm and STIs from passing through.
Condoms are 98% effective when they’re used correctly.
In Barnsley you can get free condoms when you go to the GUM, a clinic or with a C-Card.
