The Polish Day was enjoyable and a successful event with a good attendance of both Polish and other nationalities. The TASTE stand looked good and attracted a lot of interest. We collected details from people interested in a long weekend trip to Torun and those wanting to be notified of TASTE activities.

The majority of those on the long weekend trip list seem to favour Spring 2008.

I was also born in Swindon and if you are involved with the Polish Community here there is never a dull moment. We live like one big happy family and there is always something happening. Swindon was lacking in many things for a number of years and the architecture was dreadful, but things are improving now. We are in a good position, with Bath and Oxford and even London within easy reach. We have beautiful country side around us such as the Cotswolds and I am happy with my life here.

W ramach współpracy miast partnerskich pragniemy przyjechać do Swindon, by nawiązać współpracę z organizacjami pozarządowymi i samorządem Swindon, aby w przyszłości realizować wspólny projekt dotyczący wymiany informacji i pomysłów w celu wzajemnego poznania obu miast, realizacji rozwiązywania problemów społecznych i budowania społeczeństwa obywatelskiego.
Nie muszą to być organizacje kobiet, ale takie, które sa u Was i mogą podzielić się z nami tym, co robią. Interesuje jak rozwiązujecie problemy społeczne a szczególnie problemy rodzin.

I was born in Swindon. Too many cars and roads and not enough community feel.
