At Oasis Domestic Abuse Service, we believe in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual, regardless of race, ethnicity, or background. We are committed to promoting anti-racism within our services and organisation. We actively work to identify and eliminate all forms of racial inequality, discrimination, and bias in our service delivery.

We recognise that domestic abuse can affect people from all racial and ethnic backgrounds, and we strive to create a service that is inclusive, accessible, and culturally sensitive. We are dedicated to ensuring all survivors feel supported, heard, and valued, regardless of their race, nationality, or cultural identity.

At Oasis Domestic Abuse Service, we are committed to providing equal support to all survivors, regardless of gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation. We recognise that domestic abuse affects people of all genders, and LGBTQ+ individuals may face unique challenges when seeking help. Our services are open and accessible to everyone, and we ensure that each survivor is treated with respect and dignity.

We provide a safe, non-judgemental environment for all individuals, and our staff receive regular training to ensure we can offer culturally competent, inclusive care for people from the LGBTQ+ spectrum.

We are committed to ensuring that our services are accessible to all, including individuals with disabilities. We recognise that people with disabilities, both physical and mental, may face additional barriers when seeking support and safety. Our services are designed to accommodate these needs, and we are continually striving to improve accessibility across all areas.

We ensure that all our communications are accessible, including providing information in easy-read formats, large print, braille, or sign language where necessary. Our team is trained to understand the specific challenges faced by survivors with disabilities, and we collaborate with specialist services to ensure that everyone can access the support they need.

At Oasis Domestic Abuse Service, we understand that domestic abuse affects individuals of all ages, from children and young people to older adults. We are committed to providing services that meet the specific needs of survivors at every stage of life, ensuring that no one is excluded based on their age.

We offer tailored support to children, young people, and older adults, recognising the unique challenges each of these groups may face. Our team is trained on working with survivors of different ages, and we collaborate with specialist agencies to ensure age-appropriate support is available.

We are committed to providing culturally competent services that respect and celebrate the diverse backgrounds of all survivors. Oasis Domestic Abuse Service recognises the unique cultural experiences of individuals from different racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, and we aim to provide a service that is sensitive to these needs.

We are dedicated to addressing and combating racial inequalities in our service delivery. Our team actively works to remove barriers that may prevent marginalised communities from accessing help, and we engage in ongoing dialogue with culturally diverse groups to ensure our services are relevant, accessible, and effective for all survivors.

We recognise and respect the diverse religious and spiritual beliefs of the survivors we support. Our service is inclusive of people from all faith backgrounds, and we strive to provide support that respects and accommodates religious practices where possible. We understand that, for some survivors, their faith may be a source of strength, while for others, it may be an area of challenge in the context of domestic abuse.

Our staff are trained to provide culturally sensitive support, and we will work with survivors to understand their individual needs regarding faith and spirituality.

At Oasis Domestic Abuse Service, we take a trauma-informed approach to all our services. We understand that many survivors may be living with mental health conditions as a result of their experiences, and we are committed to providing services that are sensitive to these needs.

We ensure that our staff are trained to provide mental health support and to recognise the signs of trauma. We work closely with mental health services to offer appropriate referrals and ensure that survivors receive the care and support they need to heal and rebuild their lives.

We are dedicated to ensuring that our services are accessible to all survivors, regardless of their socio-economic status. We recognise that financial challenges, including poverty and lack of stable housing, can make it even harder for survivors to escape domestic abuse.

Our services are designed to support individuals from all backgrounds, including those who may face additional barriers due to their economic situation. We offer flexible support options to meet the needs of survivors and work closely with other services to provide financial, housing, and employment support where necessary.

At Oasis Domestic Abuse Service, we are committed to providing support to marginalised and underserved communities, including refugees, migrants, and individuals from minority groups. We understand that these communities may face additional challenges in accessing domestic abuse services due to language barriers, immigration status, and cultural differences.

We provide support to individuals, regardless of their immigration status, and we ensure that our services are available in a variety of languages. We also work in partnership with other community organisations to ensure that all survivors, regardless of background or status, have access to the help and support they need.
