Oasis was founded in 1997 by a group of women with lived experience of drug and alcohol problems, who felt their needs were not met in mainstream treatment services. We have over 21 years’ experience of providing support to women in Brighton and Hove with a drug or alcohol problem and our adult services form part of the city’s drug and alcohol treatment delivery system.
We provide childcare in our crèche alongside all our services. In 2005 we begun delivering therapeutic services for children and young people affected by substance misuse in the family. Since 2016 we have been delivering services in East Sussex. We also have specialist services for sex workers (SWOP) which we have been delivering for over 18 years.
