Still Loud. Now Leading.

Introducing RAWD, The Charity…

RAWD has spent over a decade co-creating joyful, inclusive spaces where disabled artists can thrive.

We believe creativity is a powerful vehicle for independence, confidence, and expression - enabling people to dream bigger, communicate more freely, and take up space that’s rightfully theirs.

To Be Near a Shooting Star

A sparkly, twinkly, candy cane sweet story. M+J go on a quest, looking for a spot to rest. Expect tinsel, triumphs and 3 not so wise kings, as RAWD present their version of a classic.  

This year, RAWD are collaborating with Blue Room.

Blue Room artists are working as the visual design team for the show by creating magical, twinkling backdrops, big bold scenery, props and costumes.

The Lost Elf

Once upon a time, a stork was carrying a baby bound for Chester when - oops! The baby was dropped over the North Pole.

Raised by elves, Buddy has spent his whole life in a world of candy canes and Christmas cheer. But when he discovers he’s not actually an elf Buddy sets off on a journey to Chester to discover what it really means to be human.
