Oasis Community Hubs

‘Community Hubs’ are the heart of Oasis. Our hub model brings together our Academies, churches, supported housing, and community projects. We work as part of local communities, understanding the issues that impact these specific neighbourhoods, and together finding practical ways of responding to structural injustice and inequality – from healthier eating to playgroups, community centres to education, job training, debt advice, and English lessons.
