For people with hoarding disorder, possessions often offer comfort, stability and a sense of safety when life feels overwhelming🧸

So instead of focusing on how efficiently we can clear away people’s ‘stuff’, we need to shift our attention to helping people feel safe, both in their environment and within themselves.

If you are a practitioner interested in learning more about how to best support clients experiencing hoarding challenges, the next session is our CPD Accredited Trauma Informed Approaches to Hoarding Behaviours is taking place on Friday 27th March, 10am - 1pm.

Such a lovely video capturing our Clutter Buddies partnership with University of South Wales💛

Working with the psychology students has been incredibly rewarding for us, with their enthusiasm, compassion and skills enhancing the way we approach our work.

We’ve seen first-hand the value of combining academic learning with real-world experience so we are so excited to see this partnership continue to grow and create even more of a positive impact together 🌱

Learn how to approach hoarding situations with sensitivity and understanding, lead by incredible founder Kayley Hyman💚

Developed in collaboration with the lived expertise of individuals with hoarding behaviours, this session will contextualise hoarding as a mental health condition, providing learners with a better understanding of the psychological background, triggers and how to implement support strategies that work to avoid re-traumatisation.

Whether you're a professional in the mental health field or someone dealing with hoarding tendencies yourself, this event will offer valuable information and resources💚

Our incredible director, Kayley Hyman, has been awarded a Visiting Fellowship with the University of South Wales 🥳👏🏼🎓

‘’Ten years ago, I began my MSc at USW taking early steps into a field that would go on to significantly shape my work and values. Returning now in this capacity feels like the most lovely full-circle moment and a genuine honour to contribute a little something back to an institution that has played such an important role in my career.

The visiting fellowship supports an ongoing partnership enabling psychology students to engage in applied work alongside Holistic Hoarding CIC, bringing psychological knowledge into community settings and supporting compassionate responses to hoarding behaviours.

I'm so very grateful for such a wonderful opportunity and to the colleagues and partners whose collaboration makes this work possible and I look forward to contributing to shared efforts that connect hoarding research, education, and community impact.’’

We are all so proud of Kayley and everything she continues to achieve for our organisation and our industry, we couldn’t ask for a better leader!💙

Children’s Mental Health Week may have been last week but supporting children’s safety and wellbeing is something we should focus on every week💚

Hoarding behaviours in the home can sometimes affect a child’s safety, comfort, and emotional wellbeing. That’s why we developed H.A.T.C.H: The Hoarding Assessment Tool in Children’s Homes.

HATCH is a free, practical resource designed to help professionals and families work together to:
-Recognise when hoarding behaviours may impact children
-Encourage supportive, respectful conversations
-Create safe, nurturing home environments where children can thrive

Developed in partnership with parents and practitioners, HATCH focuses on understanding, not judging, ensuring that children feel safe, supported and able to flourish🐣

The past few months have been filled with planning, creating and dreaming big as we bring our biggest project to date to life 🌿✨💚

This next step will help us support people affected by hoarding in new, meaningful ways… creating pathways for items to be reused, developing welcoming and supportive spaces and sharing knowledge and understanding with those supporting people affected by hoarding.

Watch this space.. we can’t wait to share more of this incredible exciting journey with you soon!👀

We want to shine a light on this incredible piece of work that was recently published by our industry colleague Linda Fay, director of Hoarding Academy, and Kate Parsons, lecturer at Aberystwyth University 👏✨

Exploring Hoarding Disorder and the urgent need for a compassionate, evidence-based shift in how services respond to complex needs, the publication highlights the importance of moving from crisis-led, reactive approaches towards collaborative, preventative and person-centred support through trans-disciplinary working.

We are also truly honoured to have our H.A.T.C.H tool recognised and referenced as a component for successful intervention within this important publication🐣

It is an incredibly valuable and thought-provoking piece for professionals working across health, housing, social care and wider support services, we highly recommend taking the time to give it a read.

We were honoured to be able to visit UK Parliament last week with our wonderful colleagues from The Hoarding Partnership to continue the campaign for 💚

Effective and compassionate support for people living with hoarding disorder relies on high-quality, evidence-informed education, ensuring everyone involved in a client’s journey can respond safely, ethically and with empathy. During our visit, we had the chance to share our insights, advocate for consistent and collaborative support and highlight the importance of trauma-informed, person-centred approaches.

We are proud to continue working alongside dedicated professionals, organisations and advocates to raise awareness, improve training and create a supportive, informed system for everyone affected by hoarding. Clouds End CIC Hoarding Disorders UK CIC HoardingUK 💚
