Hello, Oxfordpolishassociation. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Oxford Polish Association, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:01, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. It also appears that your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest, though you may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets.

If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. If you prefer to be unblocked for the purpose of changing your username to a username which complies with our username policy, so that your contributions with this username are recorded as contributions of your new username and rather than creating a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice instead. Thank you.

Oxford Polish Association (OPA) istnieje jako lokalna, dobrowolna grupa społeczna z własnym statutem i grupą zarządzającą, które nie czerpie żadnych zysków ze swojej działalności. Stowarzyszenie nasze jest zarejestrowane i działa pod patronatem OCVA (Oxford Community Voluntary Action) – jednostki wspomagającej grupy takie jak nasza z ramienia Oxford City Council.

Stowarzyszenie nasze jest stworzone po to, aby zapewniać wsparcie dla społeczności polskiej w Oxfordzie i okolicach w dostosowywaniu się do norm i przepisów lokalnych oraz integrowaniu z lokalnym środowiskiem. Naszym zamiarem jest dostarczanie informacji z zakresu spraw socjalnych, edukacyjnych oraz prawnych, a także stworzenie centrum doradztwa, jak również pomocy w rozwijaniu uzdolnień, poprzez zorganizowanie grup zainteresowań oraz grup wsparcia dla rodzin z dziećmi i dla ludzi dojrzałych. Ponadto promujemy polską kulturę wraz z jej zwyczajami, tradycją i językiem, organizujemy imprezy integracyjne oraz bierzemy czynny udział w interesujących lokalnych wydarzeniach.

Od początku naszego istnienia czyli od kwietnia 2011 roku współpracujemy z innymi polskimi grupami w Oxfordzie, a w tym m.in. :

Polski Serwis „Przestrzeń”,

Polska Sobotnia Szkoła w Oxfordzie,

Grupa „Rodzinka PL”,

Grupa „Maluchy”,

Stowarzyszenie Polskich Studentów Uniwersytetu Oxfordzkiego.

Wszystkie działania podejmowane przez OPA są wykonywane przez grupę wolontariuszy posiadających liczne i istotne umiejętności i co najważniejsze – ogromny entuzjazm i pragnienie bycia pomocnym. Każdy może się przyłączyć do OPA, a osoby które posiadają szczególny zapał społeczny serdecznie zapraszamy do włączenia się w nasze działania.

OPA jest tworzona przez nas i tylko od nas samych zależy jakim Stowarzyszeniem będziemy. Pragnęlibyśmy, aby OPA była postrzegana jako świetna wizytówka polskiej społeczności w Oxfordzie.

Informacje o zbliżających się wydarzeniach, aktualności z OPA można znaleźć na naszej stronie internetowej, Facebook, Naszej Klasie lub po prostu przyjść na jedno z naszych spotkań. Regularne spotkania odbywają się w naszej siedzibie w poniedziałki od 19.00 do 21.00. Założyciele Oxford Polish Association

Oxford Polish Association[edit]

Oxford Polish Association (OPA) is a small local voluntary community group with its board and a constitution and is registered with OCVA ( Oxford Community Voluntary Action) which acts under Oxford City Council.

All active members act as volunteers dedicating their time to fulfil group objectives which are:

    Support for Polish immigrants in Oxford to adapt to local norms and regulations for better integration with local community.
    Legal, psychological, educational and social help point for Polish immigrants.
    Contact centre for local authorities and organisations interested in Polish community.
    Promotion of the best of Polish culture, customs, traditions and language.

The main aim is to have a place of support for Polish people for better integration with local community. OPA helps Poles living and working in Oxford to overcome feeling of isolation and “being a foreigner” through provision of expert advice, language help, psychological support, organisation of interest groups for adults and children as well as a place to meet new friends, share experiences and help others.

Since a start in April 2011, OPA successfully cooperates with other Oxford groups dedicated to Polish community:

   Polish Service “Przestrzen”,
   Polish Saturday School,
   Group dedicated to Polish Families “Rodzinka PL”,
   Group „Maluchy”
   Polish Student Society of Oxford University.

OPA is created by us and it rely only on us what group we create. We wish for OPA to be seen as a great image of Polish community living and working in Oxford.

OPA welcomes everyone and there is always something for everyone. Regular meetings are held in our Venue every Monday from 7pm. to 9pm. Information about upcoming events, news from OPA and its members can be found on our website, on our FB webpage or you can just come to one of our meetings!
