About RagBag

Just have fun - playing and getting messy is good for grown-ups too!

children naturally understand how to play 'let's pretend' on the road to adulthood, many of us lose confidence or develop inhibitions that block our natural creativity   I believe that some of this is is because we are set goals focussed on achievement rather than the joy of the journey - we are pushed either to do things well or not at all 

RagBag provides a bridge for adults to get in touch

with some of the creativity, playfulness and spontaneity

that may have gone out of our lives

starting something and feeling that we've failed can affect our confidence and willingness to try again in the future there are plenty of adult education classes for learning singing, or drawing, or dancing, or knitting... ... but some of us won't ever reach the standards we hope for in those skills 

with RagBag, we create for the pure delight in the process

rather than in the search for perfection

many of our activities are purely about giving you space and encouragement to be playful failure is not going to happen  you will learn skills! but our favourite RagBag outcomes are ...

smiling … laughing … trusting … attempting … relating … wellbeing … relaxing
