Losing the Oasis is a huge loss for the alternative community with already so little choice in physical shops for alternative people the oasis stood out as an important landmark for us and now with the immediate closure of the Priory Square shopping centre it has destroyed the lives of those who work there for most it’s their only form of income the pain, fear and heartbreak this has caused them is irreversible only given an hour to collect what they can then left to figure out what’s next it’s unacceptable we need to see all of those affected compensated for this immediate closure and either provided a new and functional space for them to continue the amazing service they provide or for the Priory square shopping centre to see funding and repair so that they may continue to work without this people may lose more than their jobs
