About Oasis Christian Trust

Oasis Christian Trust is a registered Charity; keeping a Christian presence on the high street since 1984.

We also make a great cuppa and keep the Trust’s values alive by offering a friendly face and a kind ear to those who need to retreat from the street for a while. The shop engages with the community through running events such as craft and author evenings and being a Fair Trade presence at local schools, country shows and church fairs. The trust aims to expand it’s outreach and ability to provide further community support including story-time social events for children during the school holidays, through fundraising activities and an enhanced social media presence.
