Knights, which has operated in Streatham for nearly 90 years, said in a challenging financial environment for youth clubs, partnering with Oasis will help “offer even better, more engaging and effective services for young people”.

Knights runs youth clubs for children aged from school year 4 and upwards as well as provide a street-based service.

It said the new arrangement – tentatively named Oasis at Knights - will retain the same services and team and blend that with Oasis’ leadership, ideas and resources. It also praised Oasis for sharing its values and ambition.

The transition will happen gradually over the coming year to ensure there’s no disruption to services, it added.
