Dismantling disabling barriers one article at a time

The image is an infographic illustrating the "Hierarchy of road users," with a focus on vulnerability levels. The design features a gradient background transitioning from light blue at the top to white at the bottom. At the top right corner, there is a blue and green "Safer Mobility" logo from Surewise, featuring an icon of a mobility scooter. The title "Hierarchy of road users" is written in bold green and blue text. A horizontal arrow spans the image, indicating a spectrum from "Most vulnerable" on the left to "Least vulnerable" on the right. The infographic depicts different types of road users along this scale: - On the most vulnerable end, there is a pedestrian, a mobility scooter user (highlighted with a magnifying glass effect and a red question mark), and horse riders. - In the middle, cyclists and smaller vehicles like cars are shown. - On the least vulnerable end, larger vehicles such as vans and trucks are depicted. The image emphasizes the importance of road safety and awareness, particularly for more vulnerable road users like pedestrians and mobility scooter users.
The image is a promotional banner for a podcast called "My Voice Podcast." The banner has a purple background with white text and includes the podcast's logo, which features a microphone icon and the tagline "Amplifying Unheard Voices." The text on the image reads: **"Giving disabled people from ethnic minorities a voice"** (inside a purple speech bubble). **"Listen on Spotify >>>"** (written in large white font). The image also includes the Spotify logo, which is a green circle with three white sound waves. The design suggests that the podcast focuses on amplifying the voices of disabled individuals from ethnic minority backgrounds.

Crip Life™ Advertising Service Reviews

Exceptional Experience

On behalf of Red Press, I want to thank Crip Life for working with us. The team are organised, responsive, and helpful, clearly driven by a commitment to dismantling disabling barriers.

Communication was seamless, and they were consistently responsive to any inquiries or suggestions I had. Working with Crip Life was not just a professional exchange, but felt like a true collaboration where ideas were welcomed and passions shared.

I would definitely recommend working with them, and hope to do so again in the future.

Olivia Griffith at Red Press
