Happy Trustee Week! Grateful to have a Board of Trustees who volunteer their knowledge & lived experience to make Wales a better place. "Oasis is such a special community of people and we love providing a warm welsh welcome to folk as they seek sanctuary in Cardiff" Chair of Trustees

✨Half Term Fun✨ This week our families enjoyed watching Encanto with a screening from Cardiff Animation Festival. We also got creative with cupcake and biscuit decorating and today we enjoyed some lovely storytelling with Cath.

Wonderful donation from our friends at Grangetown Primary School. Croeso! 💙 We served 31,300 lunches in 2024. We wouldn't be able to do this without our amazing kitchen team, volunteers, funders & generous food donations. Donations welcome for rice, pasta, tinned tomatoes, coconut milk & beans.

After a weekend of hate and violence, here's a reminder that sanctuary seekers are always welcome in Wales. The demonstrations over the weekend were nothing short of disgraceful. Seeking asylum is a human right and Wales is made all the richer for welcoming refugees.

A passion for the environment inspired Voix Verte, or Green Voice, a podcast for all things environmental. “I was trying to find something really to express all of this knowledge. Like, climate refugees an how nature around us is really important.” www.oasiscardiff.org/from-burkina...

The decision to suspend refugee family reunification will have devastating consequences for families and children. The government's continued dehumanisation of asylum seekers will impact those who most need our support.

Our work with Action Asylum has been featured in the Big Issue! 💙 The article celebrates Action Asylum and is a story of solidarity and hope. Read the full article: www.bigissue.com/news/activis...

Sanctuary seekers face significant digital barriers but a Dow initiative takes steps towards addressing these challenges. 💻 “It helps me, as I can get the educational books on the tablet, so it helps me with my studies."

Our talented Oasis band, The Gambas, performed at the @llangollen1947.bsky.social this year with the One World Choir singing powerful songs to describe the special bond of being sanctuary seekers here in Wales and being 'free to fly' and to 'dream of love' 🕊️

We had lots of families join us for a screening of the wonderful film, The Wild Robot. Have you seen it? 🤖 Big thank you to Cardiff Animation Festival!

The racist violence in Ballymena is devastating. What makes it worse is that we've seen this before. To keep our communities safe, we need politicians to stop the relentless scapegoating of newcomers and show that we are a community of solidarity, not strangers.

Happy #RefugeeWeek! Next weekend @susietsegay.bsky.social is running 100 MILES to raise funds for @oasiscdf.bsky.social - a community centre supporting refugees & asylum seekers. 100miles is a long way in a car, never mind on foot! Sponsor if you can 👉 localgiving.org/fundraising/... #RunningPunks
