POSK

United Kingdom Polish cultural organisation

POSK
The Polish Social and Cultural Centre (Polish: Polski Ośrodek Społeczno-Kulturalny; POSK) is a Polish cultural centre in west London, England. It was founded in 1967 and funded by public subscription, on the initiative of Polish engineer Roman Wajda, at 238–246 King Street, Hammersmith. The rationale was that during the Cold War, the Polish community in the United Kingdom was politically opposed to the Polish Communist authorities in its native country and could not otherwise avail itself of a continuous source of Polish history and culture and for potential future generations in exile. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_Social_and_Cultural_Centre
