OASIS Counselling Centre and 5fm have joined up and are working together in the fight against addiction.

OASIS has become 5fm resident experts on addiction. We have been on the air waves twice, once with Helen with advice on how to start overcoming drug addiction, and once with Anstice with how to recognize if you have an eating disorder.

It is hoped that with the Oasis experts and with 5fm's national youth coverage, some useful information will get to those who need it.

In a similar way OASIS was asked by Cosmopolitan Magazine to offer opinion and advice on Tattoo addiction for an up coming feature.
