Found on a train, bus, DLR or Tube in the process of some mad challenge and campaigning for more step free access on public transport. I’m going to Wheelchair Across The Alps in June 2025 for Ataxia UK.

A graphic image on a white background. The image is a map of the District Line in green with station names dotted along the line. There are six branches on the line. There is also text on the image that reads: District line. Ultra wheelchair marathon challenge. 60 Stations. 100km. 2 men in wheelchairs. Friday October 25th 2024. There is also a logo for the charity ATAXIA which is depicted as a text graphic spelling out ATAXIA in grey with a multi-coloured band of distortion running through the top of the letters.

I’m wheel’n all 26.2 miles of the @LondonMarathon this Sunday to raise money for @AtaxiaUK in my wheelchair. Hopefully I will also raise awareness of my rare neurological disease, #ataxia. This is my bib number if you want to follow my progress.
A square graphic image with the number 35565 and the name “Ben” . Also on the image is the London Marathon logo which is a stylised “L” in italics Meeting a stylised “M” also in italics with the text “TCS London Marathon” in the negative space between in very small font . The image colours are black and white except for another logo which is a lowercase joined up style “tcs” in a yellow, red and purple gradient.

This photo sums up what I love about traveling on the Tube. Thank you TfL staff for all your help in 2023. Looking forward to seeing you all in 2024.
Me in my wheelchair being helped by TfL staff ramp assistance to board a tube train. A member of staff is standing behind me watching out to make sure I board safely while im moving across the ramp and into the tube car between the open doors.
