St George's Hydrotherapy Users

@JulieStevoPR @PeterboroughCC @peterboroughtel The Council will have moved out?

A welcome update from @PeterboroughCC on access via the front entrance of city's town hall, which has been denied to #disabled people🧑‍🦽 for over a year. A new lift is scheduled to be installed this August. @peterboroughtel

@pbhydro_users @docshab @andrewpakes_ @peterboroughtel Apologies for the late response - the faulty lift at the front of the Town Hall is scheduled to be removed in June, and the new lift is scheduled to be installed in August. The rear lift is still working.

@PeterboroughCC @docshab @andrewpakes_ @peterboroughtel Thank you so much for this helpful update. We hope for everyone affected this does go to plan. #AccessibilityMatters

Dear @PeterboroughCC thank you for this information. However, do you have an update yet on the repair of the lift into the Town Hall? We understand this has been out of order for over a year now. #AccessibilityMatters @docshab @andrewpakes_ @peterboroughtel

For many #disabled people in #Peterborough St George's #Hydrotherapy #Pool was their only means of being active, keeping healthy, and if required, losing weight. If the health of residents is going to be improved, it's important that a hydrotherapy service is restored.

@PaulStainton We visited last Thursday morning and the smell in the alleyway to get to Cathedral Square from Priestgate was quite literally disgusting. If we had been new visitors it would've been dreadfully off putting. @TobyWoody

Not a good look for the city centre - vans parked everywhere at 11am - When you are trying to encourage families into the city centre at half term this is not the look you want - can we not make people deliver before 10am and after 4pm ??

The external changing places facility at the Car Haven toilets is out of use due to a water test failure. We are working to get the situation resolved as quickly as possible, however, this could last several days. The internal men's, women's and accessible manned toilets are still operating.

@PeterboroughCC Thank you for this alert and remedial action. Do you have an update yet on when the lift into the Town Hall is likely to be repaired please? We understand from concerned service users it has been out of action now for over a year. #AccessibilityMatters

#Peterborough Council listens to residents' concerns and changes its design of the proposed new swimming pool and leisure centre. peterboroughtoday.co.uk/news/people/co…

Residents are invited to explore plans and designs for a new leisure development at a public event taking place at Sand Martin House on Tuesday 19 May, from 10am to 7pm. Visitors will have the opportunity to view images and floor plans of the proposed facility and learn more about the different features planned for the development. These include an eight-lane, 25-metre swimming pool, a 20m activity pool, a café, family play area, health and wellbeing rooms, and a 150-station fitness suite. A planning application for the development is expected to be submitted in July. If approved, construction work is likely to begin in early 2027, with the new facility anticipated to be completed in 2028.

Happy 100th birthday, Sir David Attenborough 🎉❤️ The broadcaster who changed how we see the natural world. #DavidAttenborough

Sadly, #Peterborough is one of the local authorities that has been impacted by this decline. Men here can expect to live 55.6 healthy years and women 55.2. We desperately need the restoration of a #hydrotherapy service to help residents keep healthy. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Movement is therapy. Whether you're working through hip rehab or leveling up your agility, quick feet on the steps build the balance and strength you need for daily life. The water provides the resistance you need with the low-impact safety your joints crave. Versatility at its best. #HipRehab #PhysicalTherapy #AquaticTherapy #MoveToLiveWell #MobilityTraining #SportsMedicine #SportsMed

Recovery after hip arthroscopy is a balance. You want to introduce range of motion without compromising hip stability. This underwater figure-eight drill forces the core to show up while the water provides a safe, controlled environment to move. #AthleticTraining #AthleticTrainers #SportsMed #SportsMedicine #HipArthroscopy

This week's theme is challenging those assumptions. If you're living with MS in North West Cambridgeshire, please do get in touch - I'm here to listen and to help. #MSThinkAgain @mssocietyuk

This MS Awareness Week, I’m standing with everyone living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and challenging harmful assumptions about this neurological condition. Many symptoms are invisible, but the impact is very real. More understanding, dignity and support matter. #MSAwarenessWeek

This of course also applies to many villagers around #Peterborough #Cambridgeshire. @sam_carling_ @andrewpakes_ @docshab

Within just a couple of hours we received two more messages via our website yesterday from people desperate to access #hydrotherapy. We really hope it's not too much longer before we receive definitive news. #Peterborough
