Sandra Staffiero - Trans-tibial amputee & badminton

Author: Aspire December 7, 2018 Duration: 20:17
S1 E2 Sandra talks about her rehabilitation following her elective amputation at the RNOH. Sandra was introduced to the pool and gym at Aspire by her physiotherapists and now attends the intermediate badminton class on a Saturday morning. Sandra is a member of OPUS (link below) and the Leisure Centre Customer Forum Committee. https://www.rnoh.nhs.uk/home/news/17/03/opus-walking-tall

Behind the glass doors and the hum of the pool pumps, there's a community being built one story at a time. Aspire Leisure Centre is a podcast that moves beyond the timetables and scoreboards to find the human moments that happen in the spaces between workouts and swim lessons. Each episode is a conversation, often unexpected and always genuine, with the people who give this place its heartbeat: the lifeguard who found a new career path, the retiree who rediscovered mobility, or the parent who found a supportive network in the cafe. You'll hear directly from employees and members, not about their personal bests, but about the personal shifts-the regained confidence, the unexpected friendships, the small victories that have little to do with fitness and everything to do with wellbeing. This isn't about generic inspiration; it's the specific, textured reality of how a local facility can quietly change lives. Tune in for authentic, unscripted stories that capture the real impact of a community hub, proving that the most important work often happens far from the spotlight. Presented by Aspire, this podcast offers a warm, grounded listen for anyone who believes sport and leisure are about much more than just the activity itself.
