Oasis: Your Chill Zone on Op KIPION

We get it. Operational Tours can be intense, and sometimes you just need to unwind and recharge. That’s where the Oasis comes in! Thanks to ยฃ20,000 from the NAAFI Fund, the space has been transformed and restored into a welcoming chill-out zone for host nation troops and allies.ย 

We know how important mental health is, especially when deployed on Operational Tours. Oasis is a place to escape the stress, have some fun, and come back to work refreshed.ย 

Whether you’re into a friendly game of pool, showing off your dart skills, or getting competitive with cornhole, the Oasis has it all. It’s the perfect place to catch up with colleagues or just unwind after a long day.ย 

A regular user said โ€œThe Oasis is a great facility on NSF and it has come on leaps and bounds since I first arrived in Bahrain. Not only is it great for socialising with colleagues I don’t work directly with on a daily basis, but it’s also a calming and quiet place one can use to call loved ones at home and just relax in the sunshine when the Operation permits. It’s also a great environment for making connections with personnel on Ops on HM Ships, ultimately contributing to greater Team cohesion on Op KIPION.โ€ย
