Condom Packing

Yorkshire MESMAC supplies condoms and lube to bars, saunas and other venues across Yorkshire. If you’ve ever used one of our condom packs, you’ll know how useful they are!

If you work for an organisation and would like to support MESMAC with some volunteering, we can help arrange safer sex packing volunteer days at our office in Leeds! We'd love your help so please click here to arrange this.

So far to date, more than 6 million condoms and lube have been packed and distributed. This is vital to all the projects within Yorkshire MESMAC and to many users across Yorkshire.

“Since starting volunteering back in 2019 my confidence has increased to the point where I am now half way through my degree in Counselling and Mental Health. Additionally volunteering at Mesmac has given me a better understanding of sexual health and prevention, by learning about the latest prevention measures I have not only made informed choices to protect myself but I also able to give back to the LGBT+ community by passing on the correct information enabling them to make informed choices for themselves.” - Stuart Lee, August 2023
