Proof of Age Card Scheme
A joint initiative between South Tyneside Council
Education and Trading Standards services, Nexus and
South Tyneside Primary Care Trust.
The Proof of Age Scheme
is voluntary, and available free to all young people
between the ages of 11 and 18 in full time education,
living in South Tyneside. It is a credit card style
plastic card with name, date of birth, date when 18,
and a photograph. You can still apply for a card if
you are over 18, but there will be a small fee. There
are all sorts of advantages in having a proof of age
card, including a range of discounts and special offers.
