Spread the word!

We have an additional support group session for family and friends happening tomorrow night — and there are still a few spaces available!

Curious about what a support space feels like? This is a great chance to try it out.

📌 Please note: This session is not intended for professionals working in the field.

If you work with hoarding behaviours in a professional capacity, feel free to get in touch — we have upcoming focus group sessions that may be more relevant to you.

We are proudly working in partnership with Professor Sharon Morein, Anglia Ruskin University and Stuart Brown, a Cambridgeshire-based hoarding specialist and founder of the local peer support group Declutter Together, on a new three-stage research project. This initiative aims to explore the kinds of support family and friends really need—and how we can develop those supports together. To kick things off we wanted to share our extra one off support group session, to help gather as much information as possible regarding key issues and themes- link to Eventbrite sign up is in the comments above.

I've been a wee bit quiet on here lately — very much in a spoon deficit! 🥄

For those unfamiliar with spoon theory, it’s a way many of us describe and manage limited energy — especially with chronic illness, disability, or mental health challenges. Ever find yourself rationing your energy just to get through the day? That’s spoon life.

Have you heard of spoon theory before? Do you use it to explain your energy levels? And most importantly — what helps you recharge your spoons? I'd love to hear your thoughts 👇
