Friends

“Whoever found a friend, found a true treasure” – as the proverb goes. Since September 2018, when the House came under new management, its development would not have been possible without a huge and disinterested support of our big–hearted Friends. These are the people who regularly, voluntarily and with great joy work for the Polish House Station. With their help, we were able to carry out renovations, run music projects and numerous events for children without accepting a single penny. The Polish House Station is growing in strength with real friendships like these which are formed while working and laughing together ♥

We want the contribution of the Friends of SDP to go down in the history of our 60–year–old Polish community centre which is our pride for generations to come. Our group is open and will be delighted to welcome any new member who wants to create the future with us, because as we know – together we can do more!

Mateusz Nawieśniak

He must have stood in every possible queue in heaven for talent. A reliable specialist in renovation and construction works, musician, singer, bartender, a real friend and an honest person. A rebel by choice but gifted with a real sense of humour who makes each meeting with him is a real celebration.

Piotr Parandowski

A man as hard as rock but with a great heart and an even greater sensitivity. A specialist in renovation and construction works with the soul of an athlete. Former basketball player for “Zagłębie Sosnowiec”, volleyball player and swimmer with medals. Reliable as Zawisza, sings like Rodowicz.

Izabela & Grzegorz Wróbel

Iza (a volcano of energy and ideas) + Grzegorz (a mainstay of peace and diligence).

She is a kids play animator & he is an MOT mechanic.

Justyna Urbaniak

Iwo Jakubowski

A man of many talents. He supports the Polish community in overcoming barriers related to social living, careers and education. Experienced in interpreting regulations and various complexities of life in the UK. Those who assume there is no positive inventiveness inside, are wrong. Sensitive, committed and ready to listen.

Zbiegniew Wereszczyński

A true one man band. A member of Fynnius Fogg, gifted with a beautiful rock voice. A great guitarist, businessman, but most of all a husband, father and grandfather.

A man to be always counted on.

Monika Witkowska

Grzegorz Kowalewski

Our pride and joy, a star that shines brighter and brighter not only in Bedford skies. Under the hard façade of a thoroughbred rapper, there is a sensitive heart ready to help everyone. The father of a wonderful daughter, an exquisite cook and a true friend who is always there for you for good and bad.

Piotr Tkaczyk

Capable, hard–working, committed to the task he undertakes. He loves music and is gifted with a beautiful voice which is why not once did he perform as both the DJ and singer leading karaoke crowds. His sensitive soul combined with honesty and diligence makes him as reliable as Sir Bedivere.

It’s hard to believe that there are so many talents in one person. She knows about renovations, finances, plays the guitar very well, sings wonderfully, dances salsa & bachata, is an extraordinary bartender and above all a loving sister, a sensitive creature, an exceptional friend.
