The image shows a banner with the text "Your black cabs. Your say." in bold, blue font against a white background. The banner features simple line drawings of black cabs (taxicabs commonly used in London) with additional figures: a person in a wheelchair approaching one cab and a pedestrian walking near another. The background includes stylized buildings, trees, and traffic lights, suggesting an urban setting. The border is yellow with a rounded speech bubble shape, implying it may be part of a public consultation or survey campaign related to London's black cabs.

The image features a person riding an off-road wheelchair equipped with thick, rugged tires and a sturdy frame, designed for use in snowy or challenging terrain. The person is dressed in winter clothing, including an orange jacket, and appears to be navigating a snowy forest trail. Attached to the back of the wheelchair is a sled carrying two children, who are also warmly dressed. The scene is set amidst a snowy landscape with trees and a wintry atmosphere. This setup suggests a creative, adaptive means of enjoying outdoor activities in snowy conditions.

The image depicts a somber and symbolic representation of depression. A lone figure is seated on the floor of a dark, empty room. The figure's posture is slouched, conveying feelings of sadness, loneliness, and introspection. A small, cracked window in the upper right corner allows a narrow ray of light to enter the room, creating a stark contrast with the surrounding darkness. The light gently illuminates the figure and part of the floor, symbolizing a glimmer of hope or clarity amidst the gloom. The color palette is dominated by muted and cold tones like gray, blue, and black, enhancing the heavy, melancholic atmosphere. The walls of the room are textured, adding to the raw and emotional tone of the scene. The minimalistic setting, with little to no furniture, emphasizes emptiness and isolation.

Pay What You Can advertising service

Advertise with Crip Life™ and get your product

The Crip Life™ advertise service is “Pay What You Can (PWYC).” We know this is very different to most if not all, online magazines.

PWYC is a business model that does not insist upon set prices for its goods or services. Instead, it asks clients to pay what they feel the product or service is worth to them. We have taken this one step further by adding what your organisation can afford to pay. Our rationale for adopting this version of PWYC is as follows:

  • It makes advertising accessible to all
  • Recognises that micro and SMEs and charities have small budgets
  • Places potential clients at the heart of the advertising process
  • Enables Crip Life™ to generate enough revenue to cover costs and perhaps, one day, to provide Joanna and Emma with a modest income and grow our team.

We want to place advertising for a wide range of clients as possible. So, whatever your size of organisation, if you want to share a personal story with our readers, promote a product or service, or have your research published contact Joanna Baker-Rogers.
