Monday decluttering tip: Create an opportunity this week to do a charity shop drop off.

Have you already put some things to one side to donate to charity, but they’re still sitting there waiting to leave the house?

Rather than waiting until you have a car full of bags, look for a small opportunity in your week to drop off just one or two bags.

- On the way home after the school run
- When you’re already out food shopping
- When you’re passing a charity shop
- During another journey you’re already making

We don’t need to create a whole extra trip or wait until we have a car full.

Small, manageable actions can make such a difference when we're decluttering and organising your home around everyday life.

And I’m taking my own advice this week! I have a pile upstairs that I’ve been meaning to move on. I need to bag it up and put it in the boot.

One small job, fitted into a day I’m already having.

What items have you already decided can leave your home? Could you find a moment this week to take them with you?

Professional decluttering and organising to fit around your life, not take over your life.

Feel Good Friday

Could the fear of being judged be one of the things stopping you from asking for help with clutter?

For many people, inviting a Professional Declutterer into their home can feel like a big step.

You might wonder what they’ll think, whether your home is “bad enough” to need help, or whether you’ll be told what you "should" keep or get rid of.

That isn't how I work.

My role is to support you through the decluttering process, without judgement, pressure or telling you what to do with your belongings.

You remain in control of the decisions. I’m there to help you make progress, work through those tricky decisions and create space that works better for your everyday life.

The practical support doesn't necessarily stop when our session ends. For my in-person clients, I take a car load of unwanted items away for charity donation and recycling, so you're not left with bags sitting around waiting for their next destination.

If you've been thinking about getting professional decluttering or home organising support but have been putting it off because you're worried about being judged.

I offer 2 Hour Sessions In Person decluttering sessions across South East London and Kent, as well as Virtual decluttering support across the UK and Internationally.

You can also book a free, no-obligation 30-minute Inspiration Call to talk through your home and space and how we can work together.

Myth: “I need to have started decluttering before I work with a professional declutterer.”

Maybe you feel like you "should" be able to declutter your home yourself.

So you tell yourself:
“I’ll have a go first, and then maybe I’ll get some help.”

What if working with a professional declutterer and organiser is actually what helps you get started?

When you work with me, you don't need to have made progress beforehand.

You don't need to know where to start or work out the whole process on your own.

Our session gives you:
🌻 A date in the diary and a commitment to start.

🌻 A clear idea of where to start and how to start.

🌻 Someone alongside you, so you don't have to work it all out alone

🌻 Support to keep things moving and build momentum.

🌻 Help to find good homes for things you no longer need, so they can be reused, recycled or benefit someone else.

🌻 The freedom to work at your own pace, without feeling overwhelmed.

You remain in control.

My approach to decluttering and home organising is client-led.

You decide what matters to you and what you want to create space for. We work on it together, taking into account your home, your family and your everyday life.

That's something I've always valued in my work.

Before becoming a Professional Declutterer & Organiser, I spent 20 years as a Community Adult Speech and Language Therapist, working with people in their own homes and focusing on what mattered to them and their everyday lives.

My 2 Hours Sessions are designed to make progress without needing to set aside a whole day or tackle your entire home at once.

Two hours can make a surprising difference.

If you're wondering whether professional decluttering support could be right for you, you don't have to decide before speaking to me.

You can book a free 30 minute Inspiration Call with no obligation to book afterwards. We can talk about your home, what you'd love to create space for, and whether and how I can support you.

In-person decluttering and organising sessions are available across South East London and Kent, with Virtual decluttering sessions available across the UK and Internationally.

National Organizing Week: Day 5 🌻

We’ve reached the final day!

This week I’ve been sharing a 5 to 10 minute decluttering prompt each day because you don’t need hours of free time to make a difference to your home.

Today, we’re staying in the kitchen and heading into the store cupboard.

Set your timer for 5 to 10 minutes and have a look:

Is anything expired and ready to be thrown away?

Is there anything you bought but know you’re not going to use? If it’s still in date, could it be donated to a food bank?

Is there something hiding at the back that you’d completely forgotten about?

Is there an ingredient you could use up by planning a meal or recipe?

I always find that a quick kitchen declutter can uncover things I’d forgotten I had and sometimes that means saving money by using what’s already in the cupboard rather than buying something new.

The aim isn’t to completely finish the cupboard in 10 minutes.

It’s about getting started.

Sometimes doing 5 or 10 minutes is enough to create a little momentum and motivate us to carry on. When the timer goes off, stop there. 🌻

I hope you’ve enjoyed this week of small, manageable decluttering and organising tasks.

I’d love to know which prompt you found most useful this week. Did you discover anything hiding in your home that you’d completely forgotten about?

🌻 National Organising Week Day 4

Today’s 5 to 10 minute decluttering prompt is one for the kitchen: have a quick look through your freezer.

You don’t need to empty it.

You don’t need to organise every drawer.

Take a quick look:

Is there anything past its use-by date?

Is there something you know you’re unlikely to use?

What needs using up?

Are there ingredients hiding in there that could become a meal?

You might be surprised at what you find and knowing what you already have can help you use up food, reduce waste and save money.

This is exactly why I love finding ways to fit decluttering into everyday life.

You don't have to wait for a whole free day to tackle your home. 5 to 10 minutes and one small task is enough to make a difference.

The aim isn't to get everything done.

What’s hiding in the back of your freezer?

National Organizing Week Day 3

Today’s 5 to 10 minute decluttering prompt is your fridge.

You don’t need to take everything out and give it a deep clean!

Just open the door and have a look.

Is anything out of date?

Are there jars or sauces you haven’t used?

What needs using up?

Could you make a quick shopping list based on what you already have?

I know I have a few sauces and jars in my fridge that have been waiting for me to make a plan to use them! 😂

A quick look can help you use what you already have, reduce food waste and freshen up your fridge, without turning it into a huge organising project.

This week, I’m sharing one 5–10 minute decluttering task each day to help you reset your home as one season passes and the next one begins.

Small pockets of decluttering can make a difference, you don't need hours or a whole-house clear-out.

Could your fridge do with a 5-minute reset today? 🌻

National Organising Week 2026

Day 2 of 5

Is there anything that you definitely haven’t worn this summer and already know you probably won’t wear next summer either?

If there is, you could pop it straight into your donation or textile recycling bag.

It’s a small decluttering task, but those small pockets of time can make a difference when you’re trying to reset your home and make your everyday spaces work better for you.

And you might be surprised by what you find!

This week I’m sharing a 5 to 10 minute decluttering prompt every day for National Organizing Week with little ways to reset your home without needing to tackle everything at once.

Could you find 5 to 10 minutes today to have a look through your wardrobe and/or drawers?

National Organising Week 2026

5-10 minute Declutter Prompt Day 1 of 5

Start with something that takes just 5 to 10 minutes.

Today’s decluttering prompt is a quick sweep of your home.

You’re not trying to declutter a whole room or tackle a big organising project. Just walk around and look for the things that have accumulated and can be dealt with quickly:

🗑️ Rubbish and recycling
☕ Cups, plates and cutlery that have migrated
🧺 Laundry that needs collecting
🏠 Things that have been left where they don’t belong

Set a timer for 5 or 10 minutes and see what you can clear.

And when the timer goes off, stop. You don't need to carry on just because there’s more to do.

This week I’ll be sharing five quick decluttering prompts, one each day, to help you reset.

14/09/2026

It’s National Organising Week, so I’m doing something a little different this week 🌻

Every day, I’ll be sharing a 5 to 10 minute declutter prompt to help you reset your home after a busy season, whether that’s the summer holidays, a busy weekend, or simply when things have started to build up.

I’m starting with my own house… because looking around this weekend, I realised I haven’t spent much time at home and there are things everywhere! 😂

I’m working from home today, so I don’t have hours to spend decluttering and organising either.

That’s why these prompts are designed to fit around real life.

- Have 5 minutes? Use 5 minutes.
- Have 10 minutes? Use 10 minutes.
- Missed a day? Pick it up when you can.
- Want to listen today and do the task tomorrow? That works too.

You don’t need a whole afternoon, a perfectly organised home or a huge decluttering session to make a difference.

Even 5 to 10 minutes of decluttering can create a visible impact and sometimes getting started gives you the motivation to carry on for a little longer.

There’s no pressure to follow along every day. Choose what works for you, with the time and energy you have.

I’ll be sharing the first 5 to 10 minute declutter prompt later today.

Something I didn’t expect when I started decluttering my home was how much it would change the way I experienced the world outside my home.

I began noticing things I’d never really had the time or headspace to notice.

The light through the trees...

The changing seasons...

Flowers, the petals and the details...

My head felt quieter when there was less to manage at home, there was less running through my mind too.

Before, I could go for a walk and still be thinking about everything waiting for me when I got back.

The washing that needed sorting...

The toys and crafts that needed putting away...

The tasks I hadn’t got around to doing...

It was easier to stay at home because there always seemed to be something else I could be doing.

Decluttering has changed the amount of stuff competing for my attention and created space.

Not just physical space but mental and emotional space... to pause, notice and enjoy.

Decluttering reduces some of the visual and mental noise, so there’s more room for the things that matter.

For me, that has included getting outside, noticing nature, taking photographs, appreciating the changing seasons and simply being more present in the world around me.

What might we notice, enjoy or have more capacity for if our homes feel a little lighter?

If you’re ready to create a home that feels calmer and works better for your everyday life, I’d love to support you.
