Fundraising

We have to raise about £40,000 a year to keep running – it costs £1,000 a month to heat the pool alone. Our equipment such as patient hoisting chairs and physiotherapy equipment is maintained and replaced regularly – we are currently fundraising for a completely new electronic hoist to lift disabled patients into the pool, which will cost £20,000.

This is quite a challenge, and we all work together to achieve this in many ways.
