The hot water pool in Arvidsjaur is visited mainly by many elderly people who need rehabilitation.

- I get much less pain and avoid eating painkillers, says visitor Ewa Granström.

"I have felt shit, I must say"

The time that the pool has been closed has been very stressful for Ewa Granström and her friends Dorothy Lundberg and Maria Eriksson who usually visit it together.

- I have felt shit, I must say, says Maria Eriksson.

Place to hang out

For the girl group, the pool means much more than just training and rehabilitation.

It has been a meeting place to hang out regularly several times a week.

In the clip, you hear Ewa, Maria and Dorothy talk about the joy of the pool opening up the gene - but also how horrible the pandemic time was.
