Thanks

Sorry can't help in your area.

However do you not have a local hydrotherapy pool? Ours runs disabled sessions and the heat is much better on your bones.

Hope you find something

There is a disabled swimming club at Ringwood Leisure Centre. They swim on Saturday from 12.15 to 1.30 and you have use of the gym for an hour before. Cost is £15 per year plus £2 per swim - the gym is included in the membership fee. They are really friendly and keen to get new members.

Hi PJ68

We do have an NRAS regional group that meet in Christchurch hospital. Their next meeting is actually tonight! This is the link to our website with further details of the group:

nras.org.uk/help_for_you/nr...

It may be that a member of the group would be able to help with more local information about swimming, or hydrotherapy.

Kind regards

Sarah Kate
