The Polish Cultur Center and Library ABC EduLibrary has been operating since 2015. Poles constitute the largest national minority in Ireland. We are asking Cork City Council to allow us premises to continue to create a Polish culture hub serving the entire local community.
Reason
We need more space to develop, create more events, cultural and educational workshops for a larger number of recipients, as well as to accommodate the constantly growing book collection. We operate thanks to the social work of several people.
Currently, due to lack of space - narrow passages between shelves - people with mobility difficulties have very limited opportunities to use our offer.
We do not have permanent funding for rent, energy, etc. We obtain funds from projects, membership fees, and workshops. We are currently renting rooms from a private person and we are not financially able to bear the higher costs of renting a larger premises.

It is a good way to promote diversity and inclusion of Polish culture.

Books bring culture and knowledge into our lives. And this is very important for maintaining the traditions of the large Polish diaspora in Cork.
