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 💚

Our Ethos🌿💚

With 2026 set to be our biggest year yet, we thought it was a good time to highlight the principles that always have been, and always will be, at the foundation of everything we do.

Holistic Hoarding was established after observing the impact of house clearances on tenants, and how this often led to increased distress and more severe hoarding behaviour as a protective reaction to the process. Our ethos was developed with the intention of challenging this, to promote meaningful, supportive and sustainable outcomes becoming the norm for all individuals and families experiencing hoarding challenges.

We are very proud of everything we have achieved over the last seven years, and are incredibly grateful the opportunities being presented to us to take them even further this year. Starting tomorrow.. when we will be casually popping to visit UK Parliament to advocate for national hoarding support guidelines📣🤩

Hoarding behaviours are often shaped by trauma, loss, and lived experience, so when support focuses only on risk or compliance, it can often unintentionally increase distress and leave people more vulnerable 😓

A trauma-informed approach recognises that behaviours develop for a reason and that effective support must protect safety while also preserving dignity, trust and emotional wellbeing. It allows practitioners to work in ways that reduce harm and support lasting change, rather than repeating crisis-led interventions.

Our upcoming CPD Accredited Trauma-Informed Approaches to Hoarding Behaviours training covers:

🌿Hoarding behaviour in a holistic and therapeutic context.
🌿Alternatives to house clearances and eviction.
🌿What a trauma informed approach is and the part it plays in attaining positive, long-term results.
🌿How to implement a trauma-informed strategy into professional practice when supporting clients.

If you are interested in taking part, it is online on Friday 30th January 10am - 1pm and tickets are available here: https://holistic-hoarding.co.uk/trauma-informed-approaches/

PSA.. there’s no need to sprint into the new year🐢💚

You don’t need to have everything figured out, set endless goals or suddenly become a morning person just because it’s January. If you’ve managed to feed yourself something other than chocolate and put on clothes that aren’t pyjamas, congratulations, you’re already crushing it🐸🌟

And never something to be ashamed of..🧸💛

We want to say a massive thank you to everybody that has supported us during the launch of our Hoarding Assessment Tool in Children’s Homes(H.A.T.C.H) this week, the response has been more than we could have ever imagined.

One of our biggest aims for H.A.T.C.H is to reinforce the importance of an empathetic, and humanised, approach when supporting families, helping practitioners to work collaboratively with the family to understand their needs and ensure that children have safe, supportive spaces to grow and thrive. The overwhelming, positive feedback already received gives us so much hope that it will be effective in achieving this💛🐣

If you have any queries or questions about using H.A.T.C.H, please feel free to send them through to education@holistic-hoarding.co.uk 💌
