Christmas Wish Campaign

We all have wishes and dreams.

We all want to feel settled and for our family to be safe. We all wish for a hopeful future where we can achieve our goals.

The wide range of projects, activities and services at Oasis enable us to provide far reaching, holistic support to people seeking sanctuary. We look to equip people with skills and opportunities, so they feel empowered to integrate in their communities.

Your donation will enable us to continue our vital services that help asylum seekers and refugees to build a new life in Wales. With your help, we can continue our essential work over the winter months and into the New Year, ensuring everyone that comes through our doors receives the welcome and safety they deserve.

We asked some of the asylum seekers and refugees who visit Oasis to share their wishes this season:
