Here at Oasis Counselling Centre we believe in prevention rather than cure if possible, which is why we run courses on Sexual Health & Relationships and Money Management. 

Money Management

Oasis provides a free basic four session money management course for sixth formers, college students and interested groups. Uninformed choices on money matters can have significant impact on relationships and also lead to uncontrollable debt. The course will equip people to make informed decisions.

 

Sex and Relationship Education

Oasis Schools' work conducts Sex and Relationship Education sessions in 8 or 9 schools in Dartford and Gravesend .  Our aim is to help young people consider the choices and risks that they face in a sexual relationship.  We look at issues such as peer and media pressure, self esteem, teenage pregnancy, STIs and delaying sex and use interactive and multi-media methods of presentation.  When available we use volunteers to talk to students about their experience of these issues. 

Teacher evaluations include comments such as “excellent presentation, good pitch, good materials/resources.  Lovely relationship with the group”.  Students have commented “it made me respect virginity and helped me understand it is OK to wait” and “it made me think before jumping in feet first”.
