An exhibition charting the role of a Polish school in occupied France during the Second World War is due to open in Hammersmith.

Heart of Freedoms launches next Saturday at the Polish Cultural Centre in King Street.

Polish refugees set up the school in Villard-de-Lans, in the French Alps, between 1940 and 1946 in defiance of the Nazis.

It was the only free Polish school in occupied Europe.
