Episode 6: The Polish Community | The New Residents

Episode 6. The Polish Community

In Episode 6 of The New Residents Podcast, we take a closer look at one of the largest foreign communities in Kerry — the Polish community.

Why did so many Polish people move to Ireland in the 2000s? How do children from mixed families navigate identity? And what advice do long-time residents have for newcomers?
