About the Polish Council for Britain

The Polish Council for Britain was created as a platform serving the Polish community in the United Kingdom. Our core purpose is to represent the interests and wellbeing of Polish nationals, and to promote Polish culture, traditions, education, enterprise and constructive civic engagement.
