Poolpod Now Available at Tooting Bec Lido

We're delighted to announce that Poolpod is now available at Tooting Bec Lido, helping to make swimming more accessible, inclusive and enjoyable for everyone.

Designed to provide safe, dignified and independent access to the pool, Poolpod offers an alternative to traditional pool hoists, allowing users to enter and exit the water comfortably and with greater confidence.

What is Poolpod?

Poolpod is an innovative pool access platform lift that gently lowers users into the water and raises them back to poolside when they're ready to leave. Unlike many traditional pool access systems, Poolpod is designed to promote independence, with intuitive controls that many users can operate themselves.

Who Can Benefit?

Poolpod can support a wide range of users, including:

  • Wheelchair users
  • People with limited mobility
  • Individuals recovering from injury
  • Older adults
  • Anyone who finds using pool steps or ladders difficult

Making Swimming More Accessible

Swimming provides a wide range of physical and mental wellbeing benefits, and we're committed to ensuring as many people as possible can enjoy them. The addition of Poolpod is another step forward in improving accessibility and creating a welcoming environment for all members of our community.
