🇵🇱🇬🇧 POLISH SUE ASSOCIATION AT REMEMBRANCE SUNDAY 2026 – SHARED REMEMBRANCE, HISTORY AND POLISH-BRITISH FRIENDSHIP We Will Remember Them – Pamiętamy! On 8 November 2026, a delegation of the Polish Sue Association, together with representatives of the Polish community, invited guests and friends of Poland, took part in the Remembrance Sunday commemorations organised by the Royal British Legion at Twickenham War Memorial in Radnor Gardens, Twickenham. It was a particularly meaningful and important occasion for our Association. We were honoured to join the British community in paying tribute to all those who gave their lives in defence of freedom, peace and independence. We hold a special place in our hearts for the Polish soldiers, airmen and sailors who fought shoulder to shoulder with their British allies during the Second World War. Their courage, sacrifice and commitment to freedom remain an inseparable part of the shared history of Poland and Great Britain. Representing the Polish Sue Association and the Polish Community The Association was represented by its President, Iwona Golińska MBA, who also serves as Secretary and Member of the Council of Polonia and Poles Abroad at the President of the Republic of Poland, Karol Nawrocki. She was accompanied by members of the Association, representatives of the Polish community, invited guests and friends of Poland. One of the most moving moments was the laying of flowers at Twickenham War Memorial, symbolising our remembrance, gratitude and respect for all those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The ceremony brought together representatives of local government, the Royal British Legion, community organisations and local residents. We also had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with local dignitaries, including the Deputy Mayor of the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, Councillor Matthew Werry, as well as other invited guests. The commemorations included prayers, hymns and songs in remembrance of those who lost their lives in both World Wars. It was a moment of reflection, unity and collective tribute to the fallen. A Polish Presence at Britain’s Day of Remembrance For the Polish Sue Association, this was also an important opportunity to establish and strengthen the presence of the Polish community within the local Remembrance Sunday commemorations in Twickenham and Richmond. We are immensely proud to have been part of this meaningful occasion, representing the Polish community and reminding everyone of the enormous contribution made by Poland and its servicemen and women to the defence of Britain and Europe. Polish soldiers, airmen and sailors wrote an extraordinary chapter in the history of the Second World War. From the Battle of Britain to the operations of the Polish Armed Forces on land and at sea, their courage and sacrifice deserve to be remembered by future generations. We hope that our participation in Remembrance Sunday will become a lasting annual tradition. We firmly believe that historical remembrance brings nations together and that Polish-British friendship is a valuable bond which must be nurtured and passed on to younger generations. Acknowledgements Our sincere thanks go to the Royal British Legion and all the organisers for their invitation, warm welcome and the opportunity to participate in this important act of remembrance. We would also like to thank all members of the Polish community, friends of Poland and everyone who joined us and proudly represented the Polish national colours. We remember the Polish heroes. We remember the British heroes. We remember all those who gave their lives for our freedom. 🌺 LEST WE FORGET. WE WILL REMEMBER THEM. POLISH SUE ASSOCIATION 🇵🇱🇬🇧 History unites generations.
