Who We Are:
The Devon Polish Association is a vibrant, community organisation dedicated to bringing together Polish individuals and families residing in the beautiful county of Devon, England. We are a close-knit group of individuals who share a common heritage and a passion for promoting Polish culture, traditions, and values within the local community.
Our Aims:
At the Devon Polish Association, our primary aim is to create a warm and inclusive environment where Polish residents can connect, engage, and celebrate their shared heritage. We strive to preserve our rich Polish traditions, language, and customs while fostering a sense of belonging and unity among our members.
Our association is committed to:
Cultural Exchange: We organise various cultural events, exhibitions, and performances to showcase the vibrant Polish culture and its influence on the global stage. Through these activities, we aim to foster cross-cultural understanding and appreciation.
Language and Education: We promote the Polish language by offering language courses and conversation groups, enabling our members to maintain their linguistic roots. Additionally, we organise educational workshops and seminars to enhance knowledge and understanding of Polish history, art, and literature.
Community Support: We provide a supportive network for Polish individuals and families living in Devon. Our association offers practical advice on matters such as immigration, employment, and integration into the local community. We also organize social gatherings, picnics, and trips to foster a sense of camaraderie and friendship.
Charity and Social Responsibility: We actively participate in charitable initiatives and collaborate with local organisations to support causes that benefit both the Polish and wider community. Through volunteering and fundraising events, we aim to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.
