In life there are many of us who are always in a rush, zipping past each other to catch the next train — even if there’s another one coming just a few minutes later. The instant replies on WhatsApp, quick turnarounds at work and that constant push to be faster. And don’t even get me started on people’s attention spans on social media.

ID: Isaac is sitting in a motorised wheelchair, smiling and looking directly at the camera. He’s wearing a black jumper and his wheelchair has a bright yellow smiley face sticker on it… I feel we can appreciate some positivity! He’s outside in front of a brightly coloured graffiti wall, giving street art vibes. In other words get yourself to Waterloo in London and check out the graffiti tunnel. Photo taken by Laura Dale!
