International Wheelchair Day | Disability, joy and defiance

Can we talk about Tiny Tim? The caption reads: "Can we talk about Tiny Tim? A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens." Underneath, a 1924 black and white illustration by Harold Copping of Tiny Tim, a young boy from Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol. He is leaning on a crutch, with a serious expression on his face. Over the top, a torn fragment of a page with a quote from the novella: "he hoped the people saw him in the church, because he was a cripple, and it might be pleasant to them to remember upon Christmas-day who made lame beggars walk and blind men see."

Book announcement! Lucy and James - a white disabled couple - sit in their kitchen holding a large postcard with the title ‘Owning It: Tales From Our Disabled Childhoods’. Text reads ‘Announcement!’ on cream torn paper. It’s a cosy room with teacups and crockery on shelves. James is wearing a linen shirt and the new brown waistcoat, Lucy is wearing a dark brown cardigan and matching beret - we’re both smiling. We’re holding books by some of the contributors.
