Reasons Why You Should Buy Antibiotics Online from www.antibioticsonlinerx.com/ Over recent years, buying drugs online has become a popular tendency because it is a simple process that does not require too much time or effort. In this regard, nowadays many people also prefer to buy antibiotics online as it is a useful alternative to buying them at traditional land-based pharmacies. Obviously, the reasons why people are attracted by online shopping are numerous as it will be examined further. However, this process is not only easy and free from any inconveniences but may also be risky especially if you cannot differentiate an illegal drugstore from a legal pharmacy. This way, before you actually buy antibiotics online, it is worth considering the pros and cons of online pharmacies in order to make the right choice. Be that as it may, buying antibiotics at online drugstores is getting more and more popular with customers worldwide and not without a sound reason. Read on to learn the details.

Remote Work

11/07/2022

Remote working is still a hot topic. For disabled people, it’s been touted as a big leap forward. Many businesses are still grappling with the pros and cons of this new era. This can create many frustrations and fears for employers and employees. Indeed, for disabled and non-disabled employees too. We have to pause and… Continue Reading

Hurdles and Marathons

19/07/2020

I’ve struggled to write an update recently for a couple of reasons. One is that there’s simply not been enough time and energy once I’ve finished everything else. The other is I wasn’t sure exactly what to say. As you’ll know I’m doing the Daily Sib interviews with disability influencers and my daily (ish) Disabled… Continue Reading

In this post I’ve summarised each months highlights, before sharing some general thoughts and my… Continue Reading

2012: A game-changing year

Despite the broken wheelchair, the faulty car, the defective laptop, the change in Personal Assistants, and a lingering cold; my work… Continue Reading

During some recent discussions, I realised that the positive impact of my being disabled, living life to the full and not dwelling on the ‘cannots’ can also be misconstrued. In my next post I am going to explore disability as a social problem, lay out my proposed solutions and show how we all play different… Continue Reading

About Martyn Sibley


My name is Martyn Sibley. I am a regular guy who happens to have a disability called Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). This means I cannot walk, lift anything heavier than a book or shower myself. Nonetheless I run multiple businesses, am the author of 'Everything is Possible', I have a Degree in Economics & a Masters in Marketing. I love adventure travels (including an epic visit to Australia), I have great people in my life (including my soul mate), have flown a plane, enjoyed skiing & SCUBA diving, and live independently on earth.

It’s here! The first post of my new Purple Power newsletter. Thanks for continuing this inclusion journey with me.

In some ways you can expect similar things in these posts to when I first started blogging in 2009. Education on barriers that disabled people. Solutions from across the world. Why disability inclusion is good for everyone. My musings. My adventures. My inclusion journey.

Where things are different, why I decided to launch a brand new mailing list and give this newsletter a new fancy title, sit around a clarity in my thinking the last year or so. Through growing Purple Goat, through a pandemic and economic shocks, through tech innovation like web3, and through all sorts of other change. I’m really energised to publish more content, build a solutions oriented community and push for true inclusion.

I like that disability has a colour, purple, to give it imagery and regal metaphors. However I love purple because it’s a mixture of blue and red. Beyond the disability rights drum I’ve banged for years, I want to bang a bigger louder drum of inclusion for everyone. This has to be politically and economically bi partisan. Common sense answers, to benefit everybody.

We need more societal accountability. We need more truth to be shared and heard. We need more co creation and participation from all people. Not just a few powerful CEOs and politicians.

So whilst I’m still disabled and fighting for my personal inclusion. Whilst 1.3bn other people globally are disabled and fighting for their inclusion. This newsletter is all of that and more. Purple Power is about justice and prosperous living for everyone. So we all can flourish on this planet sustainably waaaaaay in to the future.

I appreciate some of this is lofty. It’s more of a scene setter. Future posts will include my news, news from the disability community (both individual challenges and change makers campaigns), positive actions in business and politics, and much more.

Keep on purpling up the world 💜

Today is a very exciting day. I’m launching Purp Today is a very exciting day. I’m launching Purple Power. My new disability inclusion newsletter.

As many of you know, I’ve been very busy and head down building Purple Goat through the pandemic until now. This pioneering disability marketing agency I co founded in 2020 has been phenomenal. I’m proud to say it’s not only off the ground, but absolutely flying!

With an amazing team working with fantastic talent, it’s given me a bit of time to reflect, give more time to my website, and focus on bigger parts of the disability inclusion puzzle.

Don’t worry. I’ll still very much be talking about the need for brands to be inclusive, and overseeing Purple Goat day to day.

But I’ll also be gathering broader perspectives for my inclusion mission. Sharing them in the Purple Power newsletter.

What you can expect from future posts and updates. I’ll be unpacking books I’ve read, people I’ve met, sharing life and business updates. Overall it’ll be through the prism of business, political and cultural change for disability inclusion.

So as always keep an eye out on martynsibley.com and my social media channels. But to make sure you continue to get my posts in your inbox please subscribe on my website. My old mailing list will be deleted today.

As always please comment or email me with your thoughts on my news, ask any questions and suggest anything you’d like me to explore.

Thanks for continuing to support my work. Looking forward to changing the world with you in the coming months!

A week of activism, philosophy and team work Jus A week of activism, philosophy and team work 

Just wanted to share what a great week I've had so far. I've had 2 particularly amazing video calls. 

One with Adam Thomas, an activist from the 80s, instrumental in helping disabled people get our legal and human rights. 

Secondly Jon Alexander, the author of Citizens. Which is a book that really blew my mind in terms of inspiration and what I'm doing with disability inclusion this year. 

Great catch ups with Disability Horizons and Purple Goat teams

How's your week been?

🎮🎮 As a child I LOVED football, gaming and 🎮🎮

As a child I LOVED football, gaming and console games of football! Then work, travels and all that adult stuff happened. Meaning I didn't play that much at all for years. For obvious reasons 2020/2021 was the ideal times to manifest my inner child 😂

Yes, I got a PS5 and started playing FIFA again. Unfortunately my hands had weakened from my disability Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Not so much that I couldn't play but some buttons were tricky.

Then I heard about @specialeffectteam for disabled gamers. They provide expertise in both what a disabled gamer needs access wise, and the technology to solve the challenge. For me this was adapting the PS5 controller to be lighter in weight and have less resistance in pressing the buttons.

So cool and so helpful ⚽

I'm now flying along with my FIFA Ultimate Team and all set for tonight's England match v Wales. Plus hoping for a great England performance in the whole tournament.

Very recently I took a trip to @cambridgeuniversity Judge business school, where I met one of the companies I'm a board member of called @wnf_recruits. They specialise in recruitment and disability. Here is one of their co founders explaining what they do:

@mskelgee: "With not For started in lockdown - sourcing and working with creative freelance. Finding talent, embracing it, and working across creative briefs. We also do recruitment still in the corporate spaces. And we do training and consultancy. Really empowering disabled people to get jobs, and stick to a schedule that suits them. Plus working with clients to understand that side of the coin"
