Mayor Kathy Duff and Councillors will be joined by members from Heritage Bank Nanango. The community is welcome to attend and can see the Poolpod in operation.

Council received more than $115,000 in grant funding from Heritage Nanango Community Funding Ltd to purchase the Poolpod, which was fitted to the 25m indoor heated pool in early October.

The Poolpod was developed in Glasgow, Scotland, and is designed to help people who have mobility challenges, offering a dignified and independent way to enter and exit swimming pools.

It can also be used by parents with young babies and anyone who find steps into the pool difficult.

Poolpod allows people to stand, sit or move a suitable wheelchair into the lift type structure, that then glides out on to the water, lowers into the water and allows a person to step off or swim off into the water. The Poolpod is also big enough for two people to use and enter the water.

Council is working with the community to improve more of its facilities to make them accessible.

Heritage Bank Nanango is a joint venture between Heritage Bank and local residents, represented by Heritage Nanango Community Funding Limited.

The community’s share of profits is returned back into the area as grants to local organisations, charities and special community events.

Simple Tracking: Each HSTP will have its own tag making it easy to keep records up to date, with info available to both householder and service agent.

Cleaner Environment: Regular servicing helps prevent pollution in local waterways.
