Welcome! In this busy city setting, our aim is to help to create a local community where people of all ages and situations feel included, know that they can contribute and realise a deep sense of belonging.

Every week the Hub provides outstanding education to hundreds of local children, the Foodbank puts food on the table for struggling families, we support people burdened by debt, create ways for families to grow together and encounter a supportive community, and take disengaged young people and use sport to create young leaders.

But we do so much than that, so please have a look around our site. There’s room for everyone to get involved – if that’s you, please see our Volunteering page or email us.

The Oasis Centre on 1 Kennington Road is home to our Community Space, somewhere we want everyone to be welcomed, included, and encouraged to be part of community together. 

The Oasis Centre provides the open front door to Oasis in our community and facilitates a load of our community activities, programmes and workshops. These include advice, craft groups, counselling, youth work, community workshops, wellbeing sessions, church small groups and much more!

We’re open Monday-Friday 10am-5pm with our Community Fridge, give and take clothes rail, free hot drinks and a warm welcome available.
