Sometimes the scale of a task can be overwhelming - I'm here to help. Hi my name is Sue. I have always been one of those people who are naturally organised.
(1)

Most of my background is in people and project management and I now specialise in home and office decluttering and organising. I love the benefits of bringing order into a place. Naturally I use my organisation skills in my home and over the years have successfully helped friends and neighbours with areas of concern in their houses. When I realised that Decluttering and Organisation was a recognised skill I was over the moon and jumped at the chance to start up my own small business. For years people have paid for help with cleaning, ironing, gardening - the tasks they don't like, or excel at. Now it's becoming more common for people to ask for help with decluttering and organising. There are many reasons for needing help:

* sometimes the task seems so big it's hard to know where to start and so you don't

* a child may have left home and their room could be used for another purpose (guest/hobby room)

* looking to sell your home and want it to look its best against competitors

*loss of a loved one and need support to go through their belongings

I'm based in Blackpool but available across the Lancashire and South Cumbria areas. I am sensitive to the embarrassment and worries caused by being overwhelmed with ‘stuff’. I am here to help, not to judge, and I get such huge satisfaction from seeing the difference I make to clients; leaving them relaxed and positive for the future, ready to enjoy their reclaimed space. My service is friendly, professional and totally confidential. If you don’t know where, or how, to start let me help you. Please take a look at my website and get in touch to take the first step.

What a lovely review! Thank you so much!

As we move into chillier weather it's time to pack away the lighter weight jackets and have the warmer layers closer to hand.

Focussing on one person's coats and outerwear at a time:

* Gather all the items together (on a bed can be good to save bending down to a floor - I'm getting older!)

* Put aside any you no longer like, are looking tatty or no longer fit and sort into sell/donate.

* Group by weight/colour and consider if you need and have used them all this year - donate any you wouldn't miss

* Do any need washing/dry cleaning before storing? Put any for dry cleaning into the car or by the door so that they get actioned asap.

* Keep to hand any you still feel you'll wear - a lightweight coat is useful in a car just as an extra layer but still gives mobility.

* For any that can be packed away until next year consider where best to store them and how. If you have wardrobe space in a spare bedroom terrific; if not could they be stored in empty suitcases, in plastic tubs under the bed/in the garage/attic, vacuum packed in the bottom/on top of a wardrobe.

Repeat for each person in your home - if your dog has several coats include them too :)

I had a young lady in Liverpool contact me as she felt her wardrobe had got out of control - it was overflowing but she found she was always wearing the same things. This isn't unusual.

It was lovely to meet her and to see her amazing city centre apartment; perfect party place - if only I was 100 years younger!

We had a great time sorting through her clothes and because we had the appointment it happened rather than being on the Things to Do but never making it to the top of the list. We also had fun so it can be a much better experience if it's shared rather than being a solo task; it's good to have an honest option too as to whether something makes you look your best or not.

She was so pleased at the end of the session when she's an organised wardrobe which meant she could see everything she had; and she had a list of things to buy to complete outfits. We were both still laughing as I staggered off up the road with bags of charity donations - no parking space with the apartment [note to self!!]

As we move into winter the days get shorter and the nights get longer and we start to enjoy homes made cosy by candlelight I'd like to remind everyone to check their smoke alarms.

It's not something we want to dwell on but candles do get left unattended, and can be forgotten at bedtime, and a smoke alarm can be the difference between life and death. It's a quick and simple thing to do so PLEASE do it. Set a reminder in your phone or on the family calendar to check your alarm once a month. Usually it's just a case of pressing the button with a broom handle to emit the ear piercing sound that shows the batteries are ok. There should be at least 1 alarm on each floor of your property, placed where it's most likely to detect smoke and where it can be heard in all rooms. Some alarms detect smoke but others detect heat too.

In addition to checking your alarms plan an escape from your home and talk about it with your family. If a fire occurs you may have to get out in dark and difficult conditions. Escaping will be a lot easier it everyone knows where to go. Make sure your routes remain free of any obstructions and that there are no loose floor coverings that could trip you. You may decide to keep a hammer and folding ladder in the bedroom to be able to break windows and climb to safety. It's important that this doesn't sit on your "Things To Do" List.

I have to admit I do check my smoke alarm on an additional basis every so often when I forget the toast is under the grill!!! Anyone else or just me??? Please share and keep your friends and family safe.

Drawers can be a challenge as we often have many of them and things can easily get lost at the back. Plan the best layout matching the size of the drawer with the purpose and keeping items you use most in the easily accessible drawers. You may find Post-It notes useful to remember your plan until the whole room is completed.

My first step would be to give each drawer a purpose so depending on the room it might be:
in a bedroom - pants, socks & tights, bras & vests/camisoles, vest tops, make-up.
in a lounge - stationery, tableware, CD/DVD, games, photos.

Action a drawer at a time to prevent getting overwhelmed:

* Empty the drawer & wipe it out

* Throw away any rubbish

* Pick out any items you no longer want that could go to charity or be sold

* Pick out any items that don't meet the purpose you've given this drawer - move them to the general area they belong in (if it's a quick action put them away, if not place them tidily but don't get distracted and continue with the drawer mission)

* group like items together - do you need so many the same/similar?

* Consider whether they could be stored better in a box or using a drawer divider. There are many options available online and in stores these days but measure the size you need before searching.

You should now have an organised, easy to access drawer with a purpose which means you have a home for specific items and will always find them when needed and have a place to return things to.

Repeat for each drawer and you'll have an organised system

This is so true - and we can all be guilty of this!

Another lovely review!

As the seasons change and things are getting chilly we look to change our wardrobe contents. Pack away the summer tops and dresses and bring out the heavier winter layers. Using vacuum bags can reduce the storage space needed and protect from damp/bugs - but always consider the weight if packing into drawers etc. as vacuum bags enable you to fit more into a space but the weight doesn't reduce.

As you add winter items to your wardrobe turn all the hangers in your wardrobe the "wrong" way round.

As you wash and return things to the wardrobe put the hangers the "right" way.

At the end of winter you can see exactly what has been worn and what hasn't. It makes deciding what to let go an easier exercise.

If you did this at the beginning of summer now is the time to look at any items still hanging on hangers that are the "wrong" way round. What's the reason you didn't wear them?

Doesn't fit? Be realistic in whether you'll fit them again - if you decide to keep them let this be the start of meal planning/increased exercise plans to make a difference. Give yourself a target date.

Doesn't make you feel fabulous right now? If not will it ever? Consider letting it go to create space for a better option.

No top/bottom to complete the outfit? What do you need? Add it to your shopping list. Take a photo of the item if it'll help pair it up.

Often our lives can change but our wardrobes don't keep up. This can be for a variety of reasons - lack of time, thinking life could change again, reluctance to let go.

Wardrobes take time to organise and should be done a bit at a time to prevent overwhelm and ensure success.

Book time in your diary to commit to making it happen, choose a category/area and focus on it, consider how realistic it is that life will change back to you needing those clothes, let go of the items you don't wear so you can see and enjoy those that you do.

Consider storing holiday clothes inside suitcases or out of season clothes in vacuum bags to reduce the storage space needed.

Being able to look into a wardrobe filled only with clothes that make you feel and look good is wonderful - try it!

Wardrobes is an area I get asked to help with a lot and I'm glad because it's an area you can achieve a lot in during a session.

I've been contacted by a client who knows that by the time moving day arrives her energy levels will be low. She's booked me to help with the unpacking over 2 days. This has given her peace of mind that in a short space of time her new home will feel like a home and the majority, if not all, of the packing boxes will be out of the way and things will be in their place.

I'll be there on moving day to unpack the kitchen essentials, put up curtains and make the beds. I've suggested that they pack suitcases as if going on holiday so that they are sure to have wash bags, make up, phone chargers, mediation, nightwear all to hand.

I love seeing a home unfold as I empty boxes and it's a joy when clients can relax and enjoy their new space.
