Just pasted a URL into a comment and the site didn't make it clickable; I had to manually set up a link like it was the 1990s.

Let's see if it was just a one off: www.railforums.co.uk

Edit: no, didn't work here either. That's dismal.

 with a picture of a doctor in scrubs and patient in a gown in a wheelchair... what's that all about?

It's just two people having a conversation, what so weird about that?
The colour scheme is a bit unfortunate but it's quite telling the assumption made is doctor-patient, rather than two peers, one of whom happens to use a wheelchair and is wearing a dress.

To me the speech bubbles look like they are swearing at each other.

I find it quite a disturbing image with no apparent connection to MoneySavingExpert.

I agree,  it looks like a random image had been used. Also feel it doesn't look professional, with the red offset from the bubble.

I've also wondered what the significance of this graphic is.   I can understand that they want to appear to be inclusive, but it looks like we've landed on a Medical Forum.

Here's the direct image url: https://us-noi.v-cdn.net/6031891/uploads/editor/09/3lsmcdz3kuh3.svg

My guess is that it's some inherited image from a default or custom skin they've used.

To me it looks like the "abled body" one is walking over with arms outstretched to the "disabled person" with arms on their lap.
If you are correct, for me it's just so condescending, the disabled person always the one that needs the help.
