Rag Tag n Textile is a registered charity working with people who are recovering from mental health problems. Based in Skye and Wester Ross, in the Highlands of Scotland, they are a social enterprise, making hand-crafted items from recycled textiles. People working with them gain confidence and find the experience in a supportive environment to be of very great benefit to them, and often their experience helps them return to employment after illness. They also aim to reduce the stigma that many sufferers of mental illness face.
