On the last Wednesday of the month at 6 pm we host an amazing member of our community who shares his/her passion with us.
Living your passion and embracing it fully gives a lot of happiness and satisfaction, but the beginnings can be hard, especially when you have work and other responsibilities.
Each of the guests talks about their experiences, how wove passion into their life, what obstacles they encountered on the way, and how they faced them to be able to fulfill their dreams.
Meetings are informal, full of laughter and for everyone who wants to sit in a friendly circle.

Merseyside Polonia engages the Polish community in weekly yoga and Pilates classes. During the summer months, classes are held at Sefton Park or Festival Gardens every Sunday at 10:30. In autumn, we are going continue the classes in a studio.
Classes are run by an experienced yoga instructor free of charge, as part of the Community Champion project for Polish Community.

With the help of Cycling UK, Merseyside Sports Partnership and Liverpool City Council, our cycling group “Ride with Polonia” was launched in April 2023.
The group’s task is to promote a healthy and more active lifestyle, as well as to connect people and support the development of the Polish community in Liverpool.
We meet every other week on Thursday from 18:00 to 20:00.
Our routes are for beginners and intermediate cyclists, we cordially invite everyone who wants to increase physical activity in a friendly and supportive group.
Since July, we have access to the bicycle hangar in Croxteth Park, so people can rent a bike free of
charge.
Thanks to our patron the Cycling UK, members have access to free cycling courses. So, by riding with us, you will not only increase your activity, but also improve your riding technique, learn how to repair
bicycles and much more.
In “Ride with Polonia” we have three group leaders who make sure safety of ride participants. They are also trained in first aid, so you can feel safe with us!

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
Do you want to meet interesting, passionate people, learn new skills or simply have fun by helping others?
We would like to invite to join our new Wednesday evening meet ups at Merseyside Polonia office on Dale St.
Our doors are open and there is always a cup of tea or coffee waiting for you, as well as a friendly person to talk to, who will listen, answer your questions and tell you about the idea behind our organization.
Join us on Wednesday and learn more during the organizational meeting or drop us an email: volunteers@merseysidepolonia.com
