Current Projects

Here we explain the projects we have undertaken and are in the process of developing. None of them are complete pieces of work as their multidirectional and interdisciplinary nature means they are long-term endeavours that will grow with time.

This page will also provide an opportunity for us to report on the research and analysis of issues surrounding the difficult situation personnel of the Polish Resettlement Corps found themselves in after WWII, and how we have addressed this area of interest. To this end there are many stimulating issues we plan to include here, which we anticipate will add to the debate about this part of European history.

In Brief

Research and Education
We are privileged that our website has started to become the source for many educational endeavours. This has always been the intention - to share our research with the wider community. In this section we cite how our work has been disseminated.

Diddington Camp
Diddington Camp (Diddington Field Hospital, Diddington Army Hospital or just Diddington Hospital) was built in the shire of Huntington (today the shire of Cambridge) in the United Kingdom (UK). There are two reasons for including on our website information about Diddington Camp. First, it was the birth place of many children who lived in Tweedsmuir Camp, and second because we have fielded many questions asking for information about Diddington the camp.

Typical comments include those such as made by Elka who e-mailed us at the end of November 2009.

"I came across your sight by pure chance! I had a few minutes to spare, typed in Diddington Polish Camp into Google and there was the link to your web site.
I notice that you, Zen, were born in Diddington Hospital, as was I. I was wondering whether you have any information about the camp. Looking at the various links about this area in Google, I can't help thinking that there seems to be a lot of interest in the camp Diddington.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a comprehensive web site and keep up the good work."
Elka S.
