Core PD Ltd is introducing the Poolpod at LIW following its first
installation in East London as part of the Olympic and Paralympic
games legacy.
The machine is designed to provide dignified and independent access
for wheelchair users as well as for groups of people who do not use
wheelchairs but need an alternative to a ladder.
The Poolpod incorporates a universal-use platform lift which pivots
to lower into the pool. The lift is stowed on the side of the pool
when not in use.
Proximity wristbands allow a user to operate the lift by placing
their wristband beside the descent / ascent controls.
After the Paralympic Games the Poolpod will be used in seven pilot
pools for trials across England.
