Merseyside Polonia
Merseyside Polonia is the most recognised Polish not for profit organisation in the Northwest of England.
It was established in 2009 as a charitable organisation. The organisation is based in Liverpool but the project and events often involve communities from other boroughs on both sides of the River Mersey.
In the past few years, Merseyside Polonia has built up strong links with local authorities and services, arts and community organisations as well as other institutions and founders: among them Liverpool City Council, Polish Cultural Insititute in London or BBC Children in Need.
The organisation was registered on 9th of June 2009 and is governed by a Board of Trustees.
Merseyside Polonia governing documents are Memorandum and Articles of Association. Main objects of the organisation are:
- to raise awareness of the Polish Community and culture among the local community
- to support community development of Polish and other communities
- to build community cohesion by increasing understanding between communities representing different cultural backgrounds
