History – a little about the Centre’s beginnings Miss Pinder built the pool for for the use of local children, having herself suffered from rheumatoid arthritis and being sympathetic to the needs of children in the community with similar problems. She invited neighbours and friends to share the pool, and in particular disabled children who benefitted from its warmth and her kindness. Before that, the pool was in fact a stable! The Centre was officially opened in 1973, by Princess Alexandra. Miss Pinder certainly left all of us here, patients and staff both present and past, a great legacy in terms of her vision and generosity in setting up the Centre. She died some years ago, and her brother John is very glad to hear news of the Centre’s work and progress – I keep him regularly updated. |
