The first step was the founding of the Polish Resettlement Corps (PRC) in May 1946. Almost a quarter of a million Polish servicemen supporting the Western Allies found that they could not return home.

By October 1946, some 120,000 Polish troops has been quartered in 265 camps throughout the UK.

Over the years, wives and dependants were also brought to Britain to join them, bringing the estimated total to over 249,000.

By the end of 1949, 150,000 Polish soldiers and their dependents had settled in the UK and their descendants continue to make up a large part of the UK’s Polish community as it exists today.
