Side by side image. On the left a person wearing a red ski jacket, black helmet, and goggles stands on skis at the top of a snowy mountain slope with their arms raised, holding ski poles. Snow-covered mountains stretch across the background under dramatic clouds with sunlight illuminating the peaks. On the right a woman with blonde hair tied back, wearing sunglasses, a pink cardigan, blue cropped trousers sits on a mobility scooter. Her hands are holding the handlebars. There are grey railings, trees and water in the background.

Side-by-side image. On the left, a woman with dark curly hair exercises outdoors wearing a blue-grey crop top and grey leggings. She holds a small weight in each hand, lifting one with her right arm bent at the elbow while her left arm rests by her side. She stands next to a white wall, with exposed brick and red railings behind her. On the right, a partially completed crocheted piece in purple, blue, and cream is draped over a black mannequin. The chunky yarn forms textured horizontal stripes, with a peach-coloured crochet hook still attached to the working yarn. Loose strands hang from the piece, and a tiled wall is visible in the background.

Two contrasting images illustrating changes in health and physical ability. The top image shows a hiker from behind walking along a forest trail while carrying a large backpack with camping gear attached. Overlaid text reads: “Hiking the John Muir Trail for 7 days with a 50lb+ pack at elevation 10k–12k feet.” The setting is a sunny woodland area with trees, rocks, and a small stream. The bottom image shows a person lying on the floor at work with their legs resting on a fluffy white chair, wearing burgundy trousers and sandals, in an office space with shelves and equipment nearby. Overlaid text reads: “Laying on the floor at work to get my HR down, so I can complete 2 hours of work

Side-by-side images showing outdoor scenery and a painting activity. On the left, a person with curly hair walks down a grassy hillside path with a black dog on a lead, overlooking a wide green valley with fields, trees, and
scattered buildings in the distance. They wear dark clothing with a red jacket tied around their waist. On the right, a tabletop art setup shows a small watercolour palette, a mixing tray with diluted paint, cups of water, and a sheet of paper with a finished watercolour painting of a sailboat on calm water at sunset, with warm orange light reflecting across the waves and distant hills on the horizon.
