About Wandsworth Oasis
Since its foundation in 1989, Wandsworth Oasis has provided support to – and challenged stigma towards – those living with HIV.
Using revenue generated by our nine charity shops located in London, as well as fundraising initiatives, we provide small and large grants to organisations providing direct support and prevention services to HIV positive individuals.
#Movember is here! It’s Men’s Health Awareness Month, and we’re spreading the word on the importance of men’s physical and mental health. 💪
Support men’s health and our HIV initiatives by shopping at Wandsworth Oasis this month.

🛑💔 Reminder: HIV Is Not a Death Sentence! 💚✨
It’s essential to understand that living with HIV today is not the same as it once was. With advancements in medical treatment and support, individuals with HIV can lead long, healthy lives.
Let’s break the stigma and misconceptions surrounding HIV. Knowledge is power, and together we can create a more understanding and supportive community.
If you or someone you know is affected by HIV, remember: you are not alone, and there is hope and support available. Let’s continue to spread awareness and advocate for acceptance!
