had regard tothe guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)	Another activity ofECC Swindon CIO is running a Gift Shop which sells gifts, souvenirs, cards and books. The shop is especially appreciated by seniors, but it is not limited to this group only.

The first year started very promisingly for ECC Swindon CIO.
Polish Saturday School organised many fundraising events such as
school lottery, crazy hair day, cake sale, family day out. That provided a
place to meet up with not just for students but also fortheir families which
helps to promote Polish culture and traditions within the Swindon
community as most ofthe events were open to public.
The Polish School produced the traditional Nativity Play and assemblies
related tothe Polish historical events. That isto maintain the national
identity but also to share Polish history and traditions with the Swindon
community.
We also had a Father Chdstmas visit which was avery successful event
and all children in Swindon and area enjoy that event each year.
Polish School also organised a special day for children by inviting a
theatre to perform the play for children. That was a huge joyfor children and forsome ofthem itwas the fimt time they were able to enjoy the live
play.
Senior members ofthe community enjoyed balls oiganised especially for
them. These were very successful events bringing lots ofjoy forthose
participating.
ECC Swindon CIO opened a Music School which successfully run guitar classes for individual and group students.
ECC Swindon CIO also run a Gift Shop which is equipped with the goods
that are popular within community.
The second part ofthe year had been more challenging due to pandemic
and ongoing lockdowns.
During full lockdowns the Polish Saturday School remained open using
online resources, still helping children to leam the language and their
heritage. Also the headcount remained the same which, considering the
situation, was a big achievement. It is worth mentioning that ITliteracy,
within our students but also within community, was also expanded when
using online resources.
In the difficult times ofthe pandemic organising the Polish Heritage Day
can be also considered as a great achievemerrt. With the support from
Polish Embassy, itwas possible to celebrate together online.
ECC Swindon CIO also helped community by organising online support
events to help with access to covid-1S information or help with post Brexit
Settlement Scheme arrangements.
