The “Heroes of the Belgrade Marathon” Foundation donated a mobile aqua lift to the Sports Association of Persons with Disabilities of Belgrade. This device will significantly facilitate access to swimming and rehabilitation activities for persons with disabilities.

Thanks to the mobile aqua lift, users will be able to safely and easily participate in swimming training sessions, which provide numerous benefits, both sporting and therapeutic.
Given its portability, the Association will be able to use this device at several swimming pools across the city, significantly expanding the number of people who will have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of inclusive sport.

“The mobile aqua lift represents an important step in improving the conditions for sports for persons with disabilities, which is fully in line with the vision of our foundation—to make sport accessible to everyone, without any barriers,” emphasized the Foundation’s Director, Darko Habuš, adding:
“We are very pleased and proud of today’s event, which we are spending at the Tašmajdan Swimming Pool with our friends and partners from the Belgrade Sports Association for Persons with Disabilities. They hold regular swimming training sessions with their members, and starting today, this form of recreation will be accessible to many more users. Once again, we have shown that together we can achieve much more, both for individuals and for the community. For us, inclusion is not a campaign—we live it every day in the Foundation.”

The Secretary General of the Belgrade Sports Association for Persons with Disabilities, Nemanja Radović, expressed his gratitude for the donation and stated:
“This day is special for everyone who works on inclusion through sport. The donation represents an important step toward creating a fairer and more accessible sports environment for all citizens of our city.”
“We at the Belgrade Sports Association for Persons with Disabilities, as well as our members, are very excited because thanks to the mobile aqua lift donated by our friends from the ‘Heroes of the Belgrade Marathon’ Foundation, many more people will be able to safely access the swimming pool, regardless of the degree of their disability. The benefits of swimming are well known, and we are happy that it will now be made available to everyone.”

With this act, the Foundation and the Association continue their efforts to promote inclusion and equal participation for all in the sports life of Belgrade through concrete actions.
