Dawid Kozlowski, from Royal Leamington Spa Polish Centre, said: “We are very proud of what we have achieved for such a small organization and it says a lot about our community.”

Mr Kozlowski works for LKQ Euro Car Parts, which has provided significant financial support to the aid missions, and Warwick and Leamington MP Matt Western has taken part in two of the recent trips.

During the war, the Leamington group even gave six washing machines to a group of nuns supporting the displaced.

“It’s not the kind of thing you think about, but these are the problems they have,” Kozlowski said.

“We see that more and more people from the community want to participate. As we said from day one, it is not just a Polish project.

“We are now at a stage where most of our volunteers are not Polish and that is great to see.”
