The Health and Wellness Centre is a project funded by the Facility Board of the Western Cape Rehabilitation Centre (WCRC) which includes Gymnasium- and Swimming programs for all persons with disabilities within the community and WCRC in-patients.
It creates a safe space where clients with multiple types of disabilities can continue with maintaining their functional independence, promoting physical and mental well-being, and motivating each other in recovery.
Experiences of HWC staff members:
Hydrotherapy improves the performance and aids in clients’ healing process. It also positively impacts their mood and outlook on life.

I enjoy working at the HWC by helping clients improve their mental health, supporting daily living activities and independence through physical exercises.
It allows them to meet new people, build great relationships and help them discover their skills and abilities.
