Oasis Supported Housing
Mixed housing options are provided by the Oasis Supported Housing Community Interest Company, a not-for-profit organisation operating under housing regulations.
The Offer
If housing is offered, it is provided under short-hold tenancy agreements with the Oasis Supported Housing CIC as the Landlord and you as the tenant. This agreement gives you security of tenure and sets out the rights and responsibilities of both parties under the agreement. In exceptional circumstances we may offer an accommodation licence which gives you less security of tenure.
Eligibility
To be eligible for Oasis Housing, you will be in receipt of elements of PIP (or an equivalent benefit) which qualify you for exempt Housing Benefits or be able to self-finance the accommodation at the exempt benefit rate.
The housing is for adults (18+) who are on the pathway to self-determination and independence. For this reason our tenancies are mostly taken up by younger adults.
