The La Ràpita City Council has installed a new mobile lift at its municipal swimming pool, aiming to make the facilities more accessible and promote the well-being of all citizens.

This innovative equipment allows for safe and comfortable entry and exit from the water, specifically designed for individuals with reduced mobility, physical disabilities, or those undergoing recovery. Its mobile and versatile nature facilitates adaptation to user needs, as it can be utilized in various sections of the pool.

"We continue to work so that municipal facilities are increasingly accessible and designed for everyone. This lift allows us to take an important step to ensure that anyone can access the water safely and comfortably."

In addition to improving access, the lift opens the door to the development of therapeutic, rehabilitation, and physical exercise activities, allowing enjoyment of the water under optimal conditions of accessibility and safety. This initiative not only optimizes access but also expands the possibilities for pool use, especially for those requiring recovery or aquatic therapy.
