An event will take place in Welwyn Garden City next month to celebrate 20 years of Poland's EU membership.
The gathering, entitled 'Was it worth it?', takes place at the Barn Theatre on Thursday, May 9.
Doors open at 6.30pm for a 7pm start.
There will be the opportunity for networking and listening to inspiring stories of Welwyn Hatfield residents who migrated to the UK from Poland and other European countries.
Welwyn Hatfield Cllr Michal Siewniak said: "In May, it will be 20 years since Poland and nine other European countries joined the EU.
"So many European migrants left their countries of origin and settled in the UK. These individuals became our friends, neighbours, partners, wife, husbands or work colleagues.
"We have learnt a lot from each other, haven’t we?
"So let’s come together and celebrate, not so much the actual membership in the EU, our life stories, accomplishments and achievements!
