Thinking of taking a 'Gap Year'...threesixty: a Gap Year, but not as you know it! Give a year of your life and join Oasis at one of their pioneering UK Community Hubs! It could be at a School, a Church, a Music and Arts Centre or even a Skate Park.
Wherever you find yourself though...'threesixty' with Oasis is always about bringing a complete transformation to the whole community. Emotional, physical, social, spiritual, environmental; holistic-threesixty-degree-transformation. In short, it's the ultimate Christian 'Gap Year' experience!
An old Chinese guy said..."To hear is to forget, to see is to remember, to do is to understand." At the heart of 'threesixty' is doing, getting stuck in and learning on the job! Training is also on the agenda...grapling with issues and putting the hard graft in so that everyone is doing well, with a sense of wellbeing.
You'll learn skills from youth work to community development and how to release that inner creative flair! It's all grounded in good theory and theology...head, heart and hands. In short everything you'll do is about living out a real, credible and life transforming experience.
Yes! This 'Gap Year' promises to be truly transforming...it'll 'blow your mind!'
Oasis is founded on a Christian ethos and has been providing volunteering opportunities since 1985:-

Planning a Gap Year...what are the possibilities?
- Volunteer Abroad
- Do some work experience in the UK to enhance your skills
- See a bit of the world
Taking a 'Gap Year' is an extremely good way of getting more experience in new environments before going on to further study at University or living away from home.
It could be your first time away from School or College with no teachers or assignments to worry about. If you spend a year volunteering for an industry or organisation you would like to get into in the future, employers will see that you are dedicated to advancing your career. There are many 'Gap Year Options'...you may want to go travelling and sample life in other Countries. If you haven't saved enough cash, you could work your way around the world, or even teach English as a Foreign Language. You may need to have certain types of Visa to work in some Countries, so check before you go.
